But if the question being asked is, "Is shoving the turn a good spot to turn my hand into a bluff" then the answer is still a hard no. LLSNL players rarely make small raises of large bets without nutted hands - incredibly rarely, really.
You are behind >95% of the time and a shove is getting called probably >80% of the time. Does that sound like a good spot to get all your money in the middle?

A common mistake that I see a lot of players make is assuming that everyone else has the same ranges we do, and plays strong hands and draws the same way we do. That seems to be what you're doing here. For a lot of bad LLSNL players, A-T is a fine hand to limp-call with because "it's not strong enough to raise but it's too good to fold" or whatever logic fish use.

If you "much prefer a b/f line" then why the thread?
