I Do have a really solid read on this villan.....I keep repeating that, he 100% only does this with sets, I'm not even sure he lumps it in with 9-10.... He deffinatley doesn't do it with a draw......
I'm not sure I can ever actually fold this, and that's what I'm asking here, with a really solid read vs villan can we make this fold....
Cant believe i am using even more time on this standard cooler, but sometimes i cant help myself.
1) How big of a samplesize do you have with this particular villain to know that he "100 percent" only do this with sets? 1 long session? 5 long sessions? 500 hours? How accurate can that read in reality be, when we includes random 10 percent spazz/weird overvalue slowplay from KK/AA hands also from time to time?
2) Even if you only seen him do this kind of shove with the nutz over lets say a 200 hour sample, you can have witnessed him being on the very top of his range in these spots in this particular samplesize you logged with him. It doesent mean that his range cant be wider in these spots in the future, and its not nearly enough to warrant the kind of folds youre thinking about making in this hand.
3) This is 1/2 NL, not 10/20 or 25/50 table full of professional postflop nits. Its literally impossible to range a guy for _only_ topset here, its freaking madness to even go down this road of thought in my opinion.
Yes, it sucks to get in over 200 BBs drawing close to dead. Yes, coolers sucks. But its a part of poker that happens to everyone, and the solution is not to try being an alien that can avoid these spots with some stone cold white magic read on a 1/2 villain.
