ATo blind defense.. 200bb stacks.

[kidcolin]

villian is 33/21/4.5

I thought preflop was borderline. Right after I called I thought I chose the worst option.

Thoughts on all streets appreciated. River I'm most intrigued by. Not sure what I should be doing there.

If I were going to checkraise, it'd be more than that, probably pot sized

on the turn you should value bet more with these stacks, around 30

river just bet 60-75, no indication that he has a hand better than yours. Probably JJ with a diamond or some crap

blocking bet.

i think you are right and 3betting would be my play.

since you got there lead the flop but as played: repot the flop and i would probably make a big river bet like 79.

preflop is disgusting, and a 3 bet would be worse. Its not borderline, ATo oop with 200 BB stacks is a very very -EV play. C/R the flop more. Block the river and fold to a raise.

pf really isn't that bad i dont think. i've been watching some cr stuff and am really starting to understand the whole 'mix it up' thing. i don't think it's standard to call here but we can and then we must play the hand differently. i like a flop lead here since we can induce a raise often times and I hate a c/r here since it defines our hand as STRONG. make a big turn bet, villain seems to have an overpair and we obviously missed our diamond draw.

LOL u play ATo BECAUSE ur 200 BB deep, not inspite of it. And in fact I think a pre 3bet is better than a flat call due to the deep stacks.

i reraise preflop thats if he folds, otherwise i just fold

rest looks fine i probably check/call the river, looks like he might have been slowplaying or just have crap that he wont pay off with but might bluff
