opinions on river shove? as vill never really has Ah/Kh

Just shove over that raise otf.

<3 love it.

Why is there a turn/river decision?
#confused

What do you think his turn bet & river check range Greg?
It's villain/images dependent I think but I get we need some bluffs and on many occasions it's very bottom region of our river range.

Is it live, online OP? buy-in?

Yeah but what calls us that isn't a flush?

Live buy in $140

Nothing really, except maybe aqx, but him having a flush here isn't all that likely. By shoving you still have a lot of equity and would put V tournament life on the line, not to mention you still pick up a decent sized pot.

I wouldn't have a turn bet range, and I think most people who do here don't really understand the four flush board spot.

Are you saying you would use static strategy vs any kind of villains?
Sb would have nutted hands more freq ott.
Can't someone competent play well vs what you're saying?

I think what Greg said works well vs good players
it is just that Sb can only valuebet Ah comfortably in that spot and has so many hands that wanna check (twopair,set,small flush) that you don´t wanna start split range there

vs idiots it makes way more sense to just exploitavely bet Ah on turn as villain and barrel off

You had over 100BB before the hand stared, you got check raised on an all heart board, bet into when another heart came on the turn, and now you want to try to rep the nut flush on the river with an all in bet? If you had the nut flush or very close too it wouldn't you want to get the money in on the flop so you don't lose him if he has 2 pair, a set, or a smaller flush, and not wait for another heart to come off and lose him? Seems like this is way to spewy and I think he'll look you up here with Kh flush here quite often as well as maybe even with the Jh flush, your line wouldn't make much sense to me either. As played just check the river you still have more than enough room to play around with 60BB approx left provided it's not a fast paced structure.

What did V end up having? I'm guessing since this was a memorable hand for you he called but didn't have the nuts and you were surprised he called without the nuts.


Also, unrelated, but my gut when reading was that this was more of a situation where your set was turned into* a bluff, rather than you turning a set into a bluff. I think situations where you turn quality hands into bluffs imply that you had showdown value otherwise but your action(s) polarized your opponent's range. This case seems a bit more out of your control.
