i really don't think this is a traditional baluga spot. this is so often a free showdown move but is sometimes a monster.

i'm gonna imagine he probably won't fold the many hands he plays like this that we beat, so if you figure they constitute enough of his range, just stick it in since we're probably stacking off when beaten.

I played an almost identical hand yesterday but opposition showed A5o. You still played it OK.

Grunch. I think its a perfect case of the baluga theorem in action. Fold like it's ur job.

I love grunching. Ya two pair. I dont know if i could shove here tho. I like calling and check calling on river better, as we dont lose as much when were with trips or better when he doesnt shove.

I doubt he'll ever check behind on the river with trips if the river isn't a scare card. He might check behind TT, though, but call a shove on turn. So I think a turn shove is a lot better looking back.
