Hero: 25 year old who has played loose aggressive all night but has shown down some good hands in key spots. He was stacking his chips to leave and was playing his last few free hands b4 BB when this hand happened...So it almost looked like he had one foot out the door. 1200$ Stack

Villian: Older quiet gentleman with a a solid reputation. Didnt make any crazy plays all game however he was passive in certain spots when good players would have been agro. So Tight Passive. He was wearing some kind of poker logo on his vest and the other players seemed to know him so he definitely wasnt a rec player. 900$ Stack

River is a K of

Villian insta ships it verbally for around 500.



WWYD?

Snap call. You should only lose to AA here. You beat AK/AQ and 99. He shouldn't have KK. I really doubt a tight player is raising early and calling 3bets with JT.

Snap call. SPR on the flop is a little over 4. I'm never folding a set in this spot unless it runs out as a four-flush or four-to-a-straight.

call

pre-flop is probably not a 3b vs a tight/passive. He doesn't have many hands in his range you'll get action from that you're ahead.

As played.

Call/Call/Call.

Does Villain donk out AA on this board. Probably not. Does villain donk KK, never. So we can start to weigh his hand to strictly AK.

3 combos of AA and 3 combos AKs. Maybe AQs, who knows. You know him more than us. Considering he probably doesn't donk AA at 100% rate. Let's gie him 2 combos of AA and 3 combos of AKs.

Easy, easy, call.

Im not sure why suited jack 10 in diamonds or spades wouldnt be in his hand.

After all, were both over 200 BB so he has some room to speculate pre.

If you fold here, next time you are ready to leave, just leave. Don't wait for the BB!!!

This is the snappiest of snap calls
