Yeah. A9 is the worst hand that I almost always call here, but below that, your hand doesn't matter all that much. Sometimes I call based on flow of game or whatever.

I agree with that although I don't see many air hands getting to the river this way in this hand. If the turn action went bet-call then river went chk-bet-raise I could def see a light call, but once he c/c's the turn I don't think he has air enough to make it a good call.

I'd call with all aces up.

i would call with A9+ like stinger said. what is the difference between AQ and worse aces up, and why would you think that mjorg would play A2 like that vs a strong river bet that could easily be A9 for whitelime?

Why can't he have K9?

Default Interesting Thought

What about shoving over the top as a bluff? I think w/ 13-15k stack sizes, it might be a really strong play, but here I think he is just so likely to have A9, and I can randomly have Ak or 35 or something else getting tricky. Even though he's getting such great odds w/ current stack sizes, does he really expect me to 3 bet bluff here?

imo, the reason that it would be 'good' to change gears with 35 or AK and check the flop here is also the reason that you'll get looked up light; so no, i don't think he expects you to 3-bet A9 for value; so the only plausible hand you can have is 999, and even that usually bets the flop... imo you will get looked up light here, so even with deep stacks I might think twice about three betting the river as a bluff.

I don't know, I'm not convinced at all that this can't be K9 or A2, I feel A9 is an autocall, but I would definitely say theres a difference in that A4>A2>one pair. I'd set us having K9 to the same as one pair, of course, however.

I don't think the fact that whitelime bet 1.1k means more than that he has an ace (or even KQ for that matter), and I wouldn't put too much into it looking much stronger than usual. If Whitelime had overbet, however, then I'd say A2 and probably A4 as well is about the same as any one pair.
