since this is a difficult hand it won't get many replies but

[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] this play - he's two barreling a ton of air on that board.

I dunno this seems pretty straightforward. W/o specific history aside from both knowing the other guy is decent I think this is good.

Re: 5/10 turn semibluff vs good regular
 

we can usually assume that his range is polarized between air and v good hands once he fires this turn, so its good from that perspective if he has a wide pf range. this deep you think he won't call without AQ or better? this is a fairly classic semi-bluff line so i can't see him folding a legit hand unless he's seen you doing this with sets etc. i don't hate it but we're putting in a ton of money with bad equity when we're wrong, esp if we get hero called by Ax hearts or whatever.

what are you trying to get him to fold? i call any ace cause i'm the only one in the world who plays sets like this and you can have 2 pair here never. i mean getting him to fold k hi is great, but thats it.

Why can't we have AQ?

In general I think this play is pretty suicidal - your shove seems weak. Unless of course you are confident that villain will fold a pair of aces.

your image makes this play either good or bad
what does he think of you?

pf.

also forgot to say that if he's good enough to be firing TT here it gets better - but still not much.

Plenty of players won't 3-bet AQo when 150bbs deep. I don't think AQ can be discounted. That said, I AQ may lead the turn, or put in a "normal" sized cr - as opposed to shoving.
