Default Re: Stupid preflop question, 330bb deep

if you think he'll put you on AA/KK/QQ/AK then you should have pretty good fold equity and so you have to 4bet with trash and utilise your tight image until he realises you are not 4betting with QQ+/AK and starts 5betting or calling. then his view of your range has become wider, which is obv a big plus.

sorry if im saying what you already know, but situations like this i used to hate, now i view as the jackpot hands.

edit: not trying to say you dont do this already, or that my thinking is correct, just i wouldn't be concerned about giving him set mining odds, i'd be focusing on making sure i was 4betting enough that when i do pick up AA/KK and am 3bet, my 4bet is not perceived as 'he has AA/KK/QQ/AK' but instead 'ah [censored], is he making a 4bet play on me again or does he have a genuine hand this time'.
