I think this is the only hand that i played well. Preflop is completely standard, u don't want to have a wide 5betting range and u want to flat alot of 4bets in position. On flop, with this hand, You need alot of protection from ak kq aq type hands that might range bet. I think his bet size is quite awful. If he folds ak which he shouldnt when i jam, this is an amazing play. Strategy in pio:https://gyazo.com/bf358d21ae49aa6d824687d7b67786c3. Anyway gonna go play league cya guys

Why is his bet size bad?

@squanderer, I think I shouldn't have just went and said his bet sizing was bad. My main reasoning was simply if you run piosolver or any solver for different sizes in 4bet pots it just chooses as small as possible almost always like 20% pot. From a logical perspective, betting bigger when the spr is so small and u have a nice range advantage is kind of like overbetting on a broadway 4 straight akqj type board. It makes villains strategy incredibly simple aka push fold. In hindsight I think his bet size is not atrocious given the board texture. Hope this helps, not the greatest explanation haha. I'm still working on poker as well. Nice question!

well standard open i think villain with aqs is trapping alot of the time because of the spazz behind It really sucks because he flatted utg +1. however the shover is shipping like 80% so i think I do well enough 3 ways.
