flop squeeze
 

both players are tags. button has a pretty wide range. the blind probably doesn't have an ace. my line is pretty weird and might look FOS, but it's still strong looking i think

i like it.

I hate it. Both of them could have a set here and AK definitely isn´t folding. Alot of these guys are more likely to make loose calls than big folds, so someone might decide to hero call you with KK too.
Also, you probably don´t play a set like this.

These opportunties come up a lot, I would wait for a gutshot at least.

Your line does look extremely strong if you follow up, and I would fold AQ and maybe AK to a second barrel if I'd never seen you do this before. However, I don't think firing a second barrel if you get called is advisable.

you realize {AK, sets} is a tiny range right.

Re: flop squeeze
 

normally i dont think i like it without the second barrel locked and loaded, and this isnt really a spot you can comfortably do that. seems like any ace will probably freeze up and call.

however, i think you're right that SB rarely has an ace, so if the button's range lacks one half of the time or thereabouts, you're good to go. you tricky devil.

i think the lightest i get looked up by is maybe KK, and i could see the button folding AJ- with the sb behind him. if that's the case i think they fold more than enough for it to be +EV

I'm a fan

Re: flop squeeze
 

On one hand I dont like it cause no one ever leads w/ a strong hand here b.c of the pot size and stack size ratio.

On the other hand it does put the button in a weird spot for sure with like 80-90% of the hands he 3 bets with. in think this really depends on what hands the cold caller is cold calling with. Once you have a range for him then you can tell if this is profitable or not
