(I understand home games sometimes have different dynamics though where people don't raise as much preflop etc.) But the action in this game confirms this: You got 3! and like five people cold called the three bet. This table is INCREDIBLY loose, and we want to try to get to this flop with fewer people in it.
As played, you're in a really tough spot with ~150bb and an SPR of 2. I think ripping all in preflop is too much here, especially if people aren't folding hands like A7o. The comment about people folding 75% doesn't seem to be the case in this home game. I'm probably calling and seeing a flop.
On this flop when checked to, I think I'm going to actually check. Absolutely 0 worse hands are folding. (AQ, KK+, or a 3 are never folding ever) and we have very little to protect against. I think I'm going to check for deception, but never fold. If button c-bets, I'm CRAI. If it checks around, I'm betting all turns except the A.
Also on the turn I hate your shove. Your K kicker doesn't play, so you're chopping with all Q, and JJ and worse should be folding. I also feel lilke this guy is capable of having Ax float on the flop and you're also drawing to 5%.
Hi jglman91!
Yeah!! Thanks for pointing that out, the raise size is indeed weirddddd. These players love to see a flop even when they get cold 4betted. Jesus. How would you justify raising them up to 15bb? two additional bb to each limpers on top of the original raise size?
I am a little split between 4betting all in currently, because, even though button who min raised me is not going to be able to call my overbet all in here, but I can't say so for V in UTG who has something against me, I would assume UTG is going to call with ranges something along, AXo+, 66+ KQo/s+(prolly). Cos he was too aggressive, he shoved in the river after calling my OESD double barrel, which the board already has a complete straight made.
In another hand though, V slowplayed me with a better hand, if I didn't remember it wrongly, it was KK, against a TP type hand.
And also, regarding CRAI if button cbets, why do you think CRAI is the best move here? Let's assume the pot is 84bb and everyone checks, Button cbets 44bb, everyone folds to Hero in CO, and hero jams it in 120bb + - to a pot of 128bb, V only needs to call a 76bb additional which averages about 2 to 1. So is this fine?
haha excuse me for silly questions, just wanna know the reasoning behind it
