Good points. Thanks for your input.

I edited my post after you quoted it...

"I didn't read your other post about passive player pool but will now. "

That changes things some but I'll leave it alone.

This sums up a lot of what I was thinking in the moment. But like I mentioned in OP, I was ranging villain at the time on something like TT-QQ, AK. Some of the replies have made me consider now that this range could be off.


Results:

Hero shoves turn (thinking we're only slightly behind TT-QQ due to the extra outs for TT, and we want to charge the max now if villain has AKhh or AKdd). Villain tanks before calling with QQ.

If this is a reflection of a fair bit of the action at your room you should significantly undervalue one pair hands that aren't pA's, pK's and tptk holding AK. Also, you should bet unusually large post with monsters as these guys holding big pp's may not be getting away on uc boards.

edit:
You could also dramatically reduce your pfr'ing of drawy type hands you may be using to balance your range.

2nd edit:
and limp wider as you're not facing a pfr as often.

If it is TT-QQ, AKdd, AKhh then it's a slam dunk GII, if he just has TT+, AKdd, AKhh it's thinner but still a GII. (Edit: Some risk he folds TT, which would be painful, but I'd still shove if I knew for a fact he had either of the above ranges).

I think your range is pretty narrow to be putting him on without more information. I know he's limped and folded a couple times, but you've seen what, like 30 hands probably? He could just not have been dealt anything good. I would still expect most players fitting that description to be open raising TT-QQ, AK there. Clearly there's something incongruous going on here - like either he limped a hand he should have raised, or he cold-called the 4bet with an unreasonable hand. Maybe you're right that it's usually the first option given what you've seen of this player. In my experience it's frequently the second one.

Thanks for your input.

This is probably due to a difference in player pools, but in my experience it's much more likely to be the first (player has a strong hand they should have raised). But my player pool tends to be very passive.

Wow, V literally takes the opposite of the +EV line at every point in this hand
