A bit of a weird player had like 60 hands on him, I realize I should of bet bigger pre, I had nothing to go on, so maybe could mean fold even more, but didn't know if that meant qq+ ajs, having the Ac did take some club draws out.
23/14/3 60 hands

[converted_hand][hand_history]Merge, $1/$2 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 5 Players

BTN: $345.50 (172.8 bb)
SB: $526.35 (263.2 bb)
Hero (BB): $203 (101.5 bb)
MP: $209.66 (104.8 bb)
CO: $244.51 (122.3 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A

MP folds, CO raises to $4.50, BTN calls $4.50, SB folds, Hero raises to $24, CO calls $19.50, BTN calls $19.50

Flop: ($73) 4

(3 players)
Hero bets $36.50, CO raises to $80, BTN folds, Hero?

Sick spot but with Ac I think we have to just jam here, this is still the top of our range. Just interested why do you think your sq sizing was small? looked fine to me maybe one or two more bb's but I see nothing wrong with it

I was just saying the small sizing gives the third player amazing odds, I wasn't talking a lot more like 2-4 bbs, since the pf raiser made small to begin with.

I'd definitely fold here since he's a "uk reg". If he was Brazilian or maybe Russian, I'd be more likely to continue with the hand. Those war torn countries tend to have ******s that hand out stacks because of all of the napalm burning through them.

I actually think its vice versa, if this guy was russian or ukranian I'd be way more likely to fold especially if they snap raised, those guys have no balls and only raise with pure nuts.

Why not c/r the flop.Board miss you range by quiet decent margin,so you will check this flop a lot in MW pot so its good to protect your checking range by having a c/r range.
Imo if you check any Jx will bet with some flush draws bluff or whatever but if you go bet bet bet they dont have to call down very light because its MW

A passive loose agressive UK reg is usually more agro then a tight passive agro Russian reg, so would countinue as played.

Check flop is good for the balance.

He has a wider vpip, but isn't overly aggressive post flop.

clear jam with the top of your range. also jam flush draws and sets

this pot is enormous already and no reason to try and protect your calling range when STP ratio is so low. Idk if I'd have a calling range here.. if you call you only have 100 behind in a pot of 230 lol.
