Default Re: should I get tricky with AA here vs. mattg1983 (22 rebuy)

Thanks guys, I actually did go all-in for the reasons that Cornell Fiji stated. He thought for a long time and folded, surprised he gave me that much respect.

This was some great critical analysis of this situation.

I feel like a better player just from reading this thread.

Thanks.

i have trouble thinking of a hand that a tight-solid player opens utg+1 with 21bbs and then folds to a shove.

This isn't the first time I've seen people say this. It's just not true, though. Would you open fold 77 there or call the shove with it? Because both of those are ugly.

That said, he should theoretically be calling a 'big enough' chunk of his range to a shove, and it's too easy for him to check fold if I, adanthar, flat call him, so I'm personally just shoving. If you're some random calling might be better.
