I dunno I think its pretty close you need 40.8% to breakeven and versus a pessimistic range of { KK-77, 55, 22, AhQh, AhTh, Ah8h } hero is at 41.41%.

I havent read replies but I think checking behind is a monumental mistake.

I think the flop is a fold. AhXh is closer, 9h6h is closer, stuff like that.

What If he raises to 70k? Do you guys fold, shove, call? I had a lot of problem dealing with big draws deep stacked, when facing resistence. Online you just jam it cause you're always priced in. Here this wasn't the case.

I think you always fold to a raise here.

pretty much always jam if he raises to 70k.

Wait, we're always folding to a jam but always jamming to a raise? Isn't that a giant leak?

fold; same thing others said - nut fd is too likely, and even if not your pair outs are tainted. I think I call with the nfd.

And definitely jam if he makes a normal raise.

When you told me this hand you said you had just over 200k when you started the hand. Obviously having 270k at the beginning makes a huge difference. I think having 210k or so at the beginning of the hand makes it a pretty easy call. In the new situation, yeah, you have to fold. In that situation, I think the situation where you have outs regardless of what he has would make it a call because random old nits sometimes show up here with T7o for some reason.

I agree with everything that every good player in this thread has said.

Flop bet is elementary.

Fold to his shove.

Shove if he makes a normal raise

Call if we have the NFD or a pair and a draw.

Hey gobbo. I said I had a bit over 200k after he shoved. I apologize if I misinformed you.

btw, the guy showed me the As, as I said. Do you guys think that AA is the most likely holding for him?

Ship, really? I actually bet less than I usually do in this spot (51k in the pot on the flop) so I'll have more FE if he raises and I jam. You bet even less than 1/2 pot?
