I ask bc a very good player in my pool takes lines similar to yours alot and im always a bit surprised and i also havent seen how he plays the wetter turns.
On a 5c turn then it's a pretty mandatory check call - shoving isolates their ranges to nut only. Nice to mix up your lines!

Also, kudos on the AQ hand. Really amazing to see. So inspiring to follow you man. Thanks for sharing.
haha, thanks a lot mate! The AQ was pretty sexy, although there are v mixed feelings in my poker group as to whether it's good, bad or meh.

Happy to have you on board!

      mayo and ishter are back in town staying with us so will likely cut back on volume a bit. Got our football final tomorrow vs our rivals. We've played them twice already this season, drew once and lost once. Definitely our toughest final to date - absolutely pumped for it

      I would have been so tilted if I was bluffing in the AQ hand. Unsure if you had reads about villain's tendencies but seems a controversial calldown. You're way more advanced than me, so I'm sure you have good reasons. Interesting hand nevertheless!

      haha it definitely was a sick one. I've had some time to discuss the hand with dg4 and while my reasoning felt solid at the time (and still somewhat now), it may not be good as part of a gto strategy. We won tho, so lets enjoy being results oriented!

          We played our final last night too. We ended up losing on penalties the games finished 2-2. Our first final loss in like 6 or 7 seasons. It stung, but they're such a strong team!
