    Need like 40% to call I think...it's a real toss-up iyam...I probably call but these overbets aren't always fos and are probably TP/2ndP more often than we like on this kind of textured JTx board...obviously I don't include any 2pair, etc, in villain's range, but alot of hands in villain's range are ahead of us + block some of our outs to the extent that I don't know if we have the needed equity to call.

    Re: 2$, F2ts, simple AK spot against a stop n go

    My range for villain is QJ-AJ,KQ,QT-AT,98s,T9s, and even AQ. Alot of marginal-medium strength pairs + draws (couple dominated). I'm ruling out alot of out-there bluffs w/o better reads. I'm also ruling out 2pair+ hands, as villain gains no value and is likely not scared enough to overbet like this w/ those hands.

    So against this range we're like 41% against that range, so a call is definitely arguable, but I think its pretty close and a fold isnt a hgue mistake at all.

    If we wanna be really blindly liberal about assigning villain a wide range we can, but I think its w/o too much merit. Maybe I just haven't seen enough of these spots though.

    throw in suited aces of hearts and you get a pretty easy snapcall. Also, this overshove-type play should be weighed away from top pair type hands and more towards garbage and draws. Especially vs an aggressive hero like OP.
