                                  78 i understand that vilain rarely has a monsteer and we can put pressure.

                                  if you dont wanna answer itsok.

                                  the 33 is allowed at whatever frequency and the 78 was vs a guy who hasn't called a river since 2001.

                                  My decisions will always be a mixture of what i think is gto (i'm obv way off in loads of spots) as well as exploi purposes. Whichever will make me more $'s. i imagine the 78 is not doing well vs someone playing gto

                                        Pretty interesting one here but maybe too much #strat. Will post it anyway. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Worst hand i 3b call a 4b, unblock spades, however, he obv bets a chunk of fd's ott, so maaaaby i want a spade, but also maybe i can bluff all 88 here?, unblock JJ-KK.
