Default A9s makes big squeeze, flops TPWK, gets shoved on...

109$ 6max on FTP 30k gtd.

So far ive been playing tight and seen some suspect [censored] at my table..open limping KJ in CO from the first limper, tons of other stuff like that.

Honestly, I am not sure what the calling ranges of these people are after the limps and such and the huge squeeze. I imagine they are small PP's, SC's, Axs, maybe decent aces?..

Hero ???

I feel like his only real made hands that he can possibly have here are AJ and maybe KJs...?

I dunno how often hes bluffing it seems kinda suicidal but I feel like hes repping such a narrow range here that a lot of his hands have to be bluffs...

what say you?

A pure bluff is unlikely here.

I'm thinking he has a hand like KT, KJ, JT, AT or Ax. Very unlikely holdings are AJ - AK, JJ, KK and AA. A weak or strange player may be trapping with AA, but it doesn't happen often enough to seriously take it into account when making this decision.

Tough for me to lay this one down. I call and expect to see a weaker ace a good portion of the time.

I really dislike pre...but i like your stats [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] This isn't a good flop for villain to make a move, given that it hits every hand you're repping (except 1), and with the rainbow texture this is never a semi-bluff...so u have a tough decision. I agree that some portion of his range is a bluff...but u can only beat a bluff...

Why is Aces up or a set unlikely? I think a shove with JJ on that board is a reasonable play. Easy fold.

none of the villains ever have JJ. they do have AJ/KJ alot though.

also, i hate pf, and after i raised and got those callers i might just check the flop.

I can't even begin to describe how much I hate raising this preflop when you can just check. After all those callers I'm checking this flop.

As played, I think AJ/KJ/QT/AT are all more likely than A7 or air so I fold.
