When you do a squeeze play, the first thing to consider is not your hand, it's the players that already in the pot. In your case, 11% preflop raise and 27% steal is a little bit low for me. Plus, I'd rather squeeze with air than a semi-legit hand, especially Axs kind of hands to avoid domination.

Don't like squeezing here. He's not opening up too much on the button, and his high VPIP means we can assume, with lack of a better read, he may very well be calling reraises light.

I think it more comes down to it being the wrong opponents, this works better if it's a TAG raising on the button, here you're just too likely to get called.

I could see calling a taking a flop here though, if they play in a compatible way postflop. (IE. BTN isn't too agressive etc.)

Thank you for the answers!

Is a 70% cbet frequency smart after a squeeze OOP gets called against regular TAG's?
