My actual hand is an obvious shove here. And of course this is a spot i'm happily taking with like 20% range IF he min opens or if he even 3x opens doesn't really change a whole lot for me.
But when he does this 4x open he is narrowing down my shoving range here so hard i think, or at least harder than i would like.
Should the 4x really impact my range that much? What was at least a 20% range vs a 2x or 3x is now becoming more of a 12% range which is a really tight range versus his 40 pfr.
These spots actually come up way more frequently in the 0.50$ 180s than one might think and i feel that if i don't study a correct range for them i'm being passively and unintentionally exploited by these droolers and i'm just losing tons of cash
