Depends on the player, I think calling the turn to fold the river is fine, you have stronger hands to call the river like 77-88

The tough thing is that raise was from MP, so BB is strong here, which makes the fold OTR better.

Why fold vs sqz? you don't expect people to squeeze light at these stakes, or is it strickly the sizing you want to fold against?

I was working full time too so any financial impact was not a problem but I actually made money after RB, the period was profitable.

Imagine how long it would take to have a 500k hands d/s in live games @ 25 hands/hr

AQo is just a terrible hand and you've got soooo many other hands you can choose to defend this spot.

both

people dont sqz that light nor 3bet that light. 2nd u have no info. I think u might get away easy with a fold with AQo

But hey...im bad dont listen to me. Atleast bagpuss has my opinion and for sure 10x better than me

AQo is a terrible hand? wut.. so not following the logic. Would you prefer j10s over AQo here? i'm a bit befuddled & would love if you could expound bag-bus so i can learn.

So we don't know exactly how the guy construct his range, but he'll always squeeze AKo and AQ at a decent % then some suited ones too, when you don't bink he'll just easily be able to barrel you off and when you do you'll be getting owned by AK/chopping when lots of money goes in and rarely getting 2nd streets yourself. AQo has poor play ability, you're not going to be hitting many FDs/SDs that can easily float/double float with good equity, instead for example in your hh you're forcing yourself into a guessing game. I'd be looking to defend suited broadways/your decentish PPs here , but his sizings pretty big so don't need to go too crazy.

I don't in anyway play these spots anywhere near perfect and honestly when I'm actually playing I probably end up over folding with the OR folding.

Cool, i'm not sure i agree with folding AQ0, pretty much top of my range but i will definitely take what you said into considering n maybe fold my kqo, ajo as i feel i normally call those in that spot.

I think in that spot, if you're folding AQo, then it's fine to fold SCs/ suited broadways too.

Now that I see the stats of MP, he is nitty, unless he folds a lot to 3-bets, BB will be really tight here in his squeeze, so you can fold AQ because of the reasons bagpuss said.

But against someone who is squeezing with bluffs, AQo is strong enough to call. We will have a ton of implied odds vs villain's A2s-A5s, AJ/AT, KQ/QJs, we're IP and can float on a ton of textures that aren't likely to hit villain's value range(like low boards) and take down on a lot of turns.

Also on that spot, you can have stronger hands like QQ/AK, since it's a good idea to flat vs a nitty guy and keep his worse hands in the pot, also setting up for back-raises pre-flop.

Then if we have zero info on the squeezer or on the MP, then we're in the top of our range and we can't make an exploitative fold here.

FTJ definitely helps. I remember having that. Having many many stacks direct deposited into your chequing account really negates that long term tilt during a long DS.

Vegas is gonna be a blast. First time going. Variance is gonna be huge. Either I'm gonna sun run and have the time of my life or I'm gonna run like shiiit and have to learn to power through it. Regardless, I think remembering to have fun is key. Should be way softer than the nitty games here in Ontario so that'll help.

The problem is no one starts it. This is what happened to Arp. It died a couple of times and people restarted it and then eventually no one could be bothered. Hope that's not the case here.

I also wonder if Stars new challenge had a negative effect. New challenge is only .25/.50+. Actually I broke my BR goal yesterday and played some NL50 just to do the challenge. Made a $1.

I feel like as long as it doesn't completely die it'll be fine. If you're up at those hours, let's make an effort to sit in when it gets low.

It completely died yesterday for a couple of hours but started again pretty easily and went from 9 players to over 60 pretty quickly.
