NL200, how do you like my line?
 
Sorry, there are no converters that work with Everest HHs. I just need to hear if this is total spew or if it works.

Reads: We just started, but I caught him bluffing with a pot bet on the river when he missed his straight draw, and a flush draw hit.

Starting game 1937109064.

Hallaisen is at seat 0 with $253.
larsolesen is at seat 1 with $146.

The dealer is seat 0.

Hallaisen posts a blind of $1.
larsolesen posts a blind of $2.

(Hallaisen is dealt 4h 3d.)

Pre-flop:
Hallaisen raises $4.
larsolesen calls for $4.

The flop comes
5s 2c 2h.

larsolesen checks.
Hallaisen bets $12.
larsolesen calls for $12.

The turn comes 7h.

larsolesen bets $36.
Hallaisen goes all-in for $235.

Seems fine to me. He probably has a 5 or air - I doubt he does this with (or even has one unless it's A2) a 2, and I can see him calling/c/r a 7 here. So yeah, you have a lot of FE here, and obviously you have outs if called.

Not really total spew... I like it ok. My favourite thing about this play is that it sets you up to get called lightly on future shoves, should you continue to play this guy.

Ty.I guess Ive just been called here so many times Im starting to wonder whether im just spewing. I did get called by 85 here as well.

As a poker move I like it but I wonder whether we overestimate our fold equity in these spots. My HU game last night I did a fair bit of turn shoving, sometimes with the goods and sometimes without. You get called by ridiculous stuff and I am not convinced that shoving draws is as EV as we think at this level. I certainly got called way more often than I anticipated and often I had draws and always seemed to brick. These $200NL fish don't need anything like top pair to insta-call here.
