Readless, BTN vs SB, yes. Not like we expect to make a lot from it though.

Snowie suggest folding, but calling is -0.01EV

Dunno if it's a fold in high rake environments

Yeah it’s definitley close. High rake + unsophisticated players = not a good combination for us.

To the people saying snap call, what do you think Villains range is?

Even if villain's range is just JJ+ and AK we are close to a call, they only need to have a few combos of Axs to make it an easy call.

No point 4betting here if you don't want action. IP, heads up...just flat if scared.

Yeah i ran it in equilab and it is a very slight loser if villain has JJ+,AKo. But if he ever has bluffs its a winner long term.

Correct.
I am not surprised when I see a rec spazzing in this situation, happens fairly often.
And ofcourse most of the times we're against a nutted hand.

JJ+,AKo. What makes it a call is that we already have 20BBs invested. So we only need ~40% equity.

Don't 4-bet AKo if you're not snapping off a 5-bet. 4-bet folding with this hand BU vs. blinds is a disaster.

It's a 0ev call if V only ever has QQ+ and AK, add in some random spazz at some frequency (which will happen) and it's fine

People 4bet AK, other guy snap folds AT, and they think they did something. If I'm 4betting AK after I'm already guaranteed to be heads up vs a narrow range, IP, with an SPR that already allows us to get all in by the river comfortably, its because I'm trying to get all in asap.

Hoping to hit a 2 outer vs AT by flatting is not as profitable as 4betting with AKo. Because we don’t need to hit the flop to print vs 4 bet caller. Your strategy forces us to smash some miracle 2 outer and cooler someone.

Save the miracles for the guy oop with the rubbish hands. If I flat IP, I'm not folding lightly. I have the best hand on any low board imo so good luck to oop on 422 that wants to rep turned/rivered SCARE CARDS.

However I'm getting this in pre mostly. 4b/f bvb cant be be.

I always felt like calling pre with AK/AQ to blur our range/under rep hand/slow play etc. was overrated, and the way you simply phrased it makes a lot of sense!

Well you have to be comfortable post flop. Dont flat if you consider AK a drawing hand to top pair.
