EPT 2k spot

Table is pretty tough for a Deauville table with three or four Russians, BodogAri and a Dutch reg to my left. I've played with the Dutch guy three years ago (I remember cos it was my first live tournament cash) and I think he said he was a HS reg back then. I've seen him around since but not at the same table, the 2009 me thought he's relentlessly aggro. We both have clean images although I 6bet shoved a few hands before but didn't show. I've 3bet a couple of times but just standard LP stuff in non-big pots and haven't shown down anything.

I open UTG to 300 at 50/100 with AdKh in a 9 handed table. Villain who has 9,5k left makes it 825 from UTG+1. Russian cold calls from BTN and it comes around to me.

Based on what I've seen I'm almost 100% that the Dutch guy would flat pre with TT (JJ?) AQ type stuff, and his value 3bet range is going to be strong, but I think it's possible he can have bluffs in there too. I'm 13k deep with the Russian, what's your plan here? 4bet/fold against both or 4bet/call against someone or both or flat?

I decided to do what I usually don't do and just flat. I'm almost certain that both villains think I'd 4bet any AK here pre.

Flop 4d3d2d (2625)

Check, check, check.

Turn 5x (2625)

Check, UTG+1 bets 1500, Russian folds, I call

River 7x (5625)

He almost instantly shoves for ~7000, I?


Welcoming comments on all streets.

Re: EPT 2k spot

preflop seems like an easy call

river is tough, but id call, he isnt repping anything since he should bet all non nut flushes otf and has very few sixes in his range and your hand is very underrepped and hand looks very vulnerable

Re: EPT 2k spot

Call pre is good. Jam turn to freeroll him/fold chops. River I guess I call? Especially if you think he doesn't think he you ever have AK, but it seems a little ambitious for him to be jamming an A here when you have more flushes and sixes than he does.

Re: EPT 2k spot

Almost insta jam is not good news. And you have an A here a lot. I think you're chopping at best so I think I'd fold.

I'd 4bet pre and fold to 3bettor and call cold caller.

What do you do pre and on the river as played?

I don't know who he was but it wasn't the guy highlandfox suggested based on google. I've always had the impression he's a cash and not an MTT guy (I guess his 3bet kind of confirms that)

Re: EPT 2k spot

??,
If Villain bet small on river were you considering a check-shove to fold out chops and because we have blocker to A-high flush?

Re: EPT 2k spot

4b pre and make it look like we are isolating the russians perceived capped range meaning dutchie will spew and not think we will 6bet 2times in a row with 130 bigs. Seems standard.
