AQo faces EP raise deep.

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
Shove. He's been "somewhat active" and you've got a little FE and AQ.

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
You're a hair over 10BB's and your M is about 5- I think it's a push.

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
Its a push. HOH III has a problem VERY similar to this. I don't have the book in front of me, but the problem is there. The hero there has AQ in mp, and there is an utg raise, and Dan runs the math and concludes it is an easy push. Now the M was lower than 5 in the problem, and that matters, but I think you end up the same place here, even without any read.

Does villain ever raise call a worse hand? I mean, I shoved, because that's what we do with this stack, these blinds and with this hand. But that seems pretty 2006 now. I'm not so sure it's profitable any more. |

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
A random who's being a bit active deep in a tourney will raise/fold here at least some of the time. Some of them fold tons of crap here.
More importantly, AJ's clearly in his range, and he's probably not folding that, which means you're at worst only a slight dog to his calling range. Throw in some pot odds and some FE, and this is a push. |

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
Shove, this is a strong hand against a loosish apponent. I think you definitley have fold equity. Hes second to act on a 8 handed table (~same as 1st to act on 7 handed). If the table were 10 handed I would be assume he hand a stronger hand but here I think its possible villain has foldable hands such as 22-66, KQs, AT, AJ.Im not saying he would fold these hands but Im just saying that I think the villains range is pretty wide and your TAG image may help him fold. Theres also about 4k of dead money which gets you pretty close to the right pot odds in the case that youre behind a PP.

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
Someone did some stoving for me on this:
113,012,064 games 0.031 secs 3,645,550,451 games/sec Board: Dead: equity win tie pots won pots tied Hand 0: 44.037% 36.75% 07.29% 41526917 8239933.00 { AcQd } Hand 1: 55.963% 48.67% 07.29% 55005281 8239933.00 { 99+, AJs+, KQs, AQo+, KQo } Now, this is the raise-calling hands. Equity is not great and, besides, my contention is that KQ and possibly AJs are not calling here. Having reviewed the whole hand history, villain was not especially active. He had come to the table with a big stack and this had been wiped but his play in that hand was reasonable. I don't/didn't think calling was an option. My feeling remains that while we take this pot down sometimes pre-flop, if we get called we are never faced with a hand that we dominate. I didn't like pushing here. I did because received wisdom is that it is correct to do so and I think that used to be true on Stars and remains true on Crypto. However, I don't think this looks I'm restealing light. I'd given up all my blinds and not opended at all since villain had been at the table and here I am pushing over an EP raise. I would suggest that I am always a dog of called. So, is pushing still correct for all the times that I suck out or villain folds? |

Re: AQo faces EP raise deep.
I do believe you can add a few more hands to his range increasing the FE, and I would push here 24/7 with this stack
