2/5 NLHE AA in a Dbl Brd Bomb Pot - Page 2 - Live Low-stakes No Limit Poker Forum

This was not the ending to the story that I expected. Was expecting to see shove and it went wrong.

I think you need to think a lot more about where that $200 in the pot is going, because even half of it is not nothing and you can't just fold or shove AA/KJ here. Also your logic that he folds flop with 62, but somehow gets all the money in happily later on seems bad.
Also did V actually should you 62, because I'm not sure bet50%/fold 62 is the play here either.

Villain sizing is a mistake imo, since both boards are dry. $50-60 is more than enough.

Hand turns ugly pretty fast against 1 or more caller; and at low SPR its not obvious villain can bet/fold any 6.

Monikrazy -

Is your plan to try to maintain/increase FE on later streets after coaxing V to put some more money in the pot?

If so, this does make sense and may be better than shoving flop.

Obviously getting to showdown is likely to just chop it up so getting V to fold at some point is ideal.

You're going to get sucked out eventually, so you have to be wining one side greater than 90% of the time to break even.

So yeah, jam or fold into an open is far more common than with a single brd game.

If I thought that one of the remaining players would call to add to the pot, I would have called.

you're saying this like its obvious but i'm not really sure where you're concluding this from except empirical evidence from a 2/5 nl live game and you guessing? without having done any kind of math or solver work on the game im pretty sure solver would always prefer a smaller raise size than jam (to play over multiple streets, esp in position as it's better for value and lets you have bluffs) and is always going to have a range of hands that has equity to call 100 but doesn't want to play for stacks. theres an ok series on rio about double board bomb pots by hunter cichy and the conclusion is definitely not raise or fold from every position regardless of hand str / spr / position / bet sizing

Yes, i agree and was implying as much when I wrote more than enough. It would be interesting to see how many 6x solver likes checking from early positions in bomb pots though, it might prefer close to a range check.
