H2. Marginal call preflop. Rest seems standard.
H3. If your read is this is never a draw, just fold the flop (and don't tell anyone). I doubt that player type has a worse Q. Not sure what you are hoping for.
H4. Flop sizing looks fine at this stack depth. I'd guess a solver would have 2 sizes at deep SPR, but with SPR 3, it looks like a range bet for a small size to me. I'll ask PIO. I'll assume you were an MP open.
Solver does split between 1/3 and 2/3 at SPR. AT does split pretty much down the middle. At SPR 10, you do need to bet bigger in these spots...
Thank you for this. Very helpful.
H2- should I just muck pre? I’ll be honest, I’m most likely going to be owned playing 99 oop here against a decent player (guy seemed solid and had heaps). I didn’t get vibe he was super aware or aggro so maybe I just need to find the muck in this really meh spot. The only time this hand is easy to play post is when we get clean low run outs or maybe 1 high card which obv isn’t common / the times we flop sets (so rare). I just hate folding spots like this bc I know personally I’m hammering 3bets from the button with most Broadway/ etc hands - yes for the lols 99 isn’t doing great even against a hand such as K-10 suited etc. Next time in a spot like this- I will put 99 in the muck and just sigh cry inside haha.
H3- yes this guy never got out of line really all day. He did a lot of goofy things like flat raises in position with what I assume were mediocre hands (also open limped from lp etc). I saw him flat in position a ton in spots I didn’t think were proper so I tag the guy as a rec player just playing his cards. 0% chance he x raises J9/jk like I said or even some random 2 card combo with no equity just to test me as the opener. Also he seemed like type of player that would x raise a Qx type hand 0% of the time (even though I don’t think someone ever wants to do that with Qx type hands anyways on this board texture).
Again- I need to be more aware here and just find the fold with such shallow stacks.
H4 yes I was a mp opener. Is it a mistake with my bet sizing at all? Should I always be setting up a turn shove here? I cbet 15k into 55k and then bet 60k into 85k. The villian Hollywood tanked for 30-40 seconds and shoved (maybe this should have made his hand obv). It was kinda frustrating bc I’m always calling when I commit such a big portion of my stack but the villian doesn’t understand this obviously. I had maybe 85k behind on turn. Is it goofy to bet 60k with 85k behind? It felt odd having such little behind.
H2/h3: I think I give live players too much credit for doing crazy things with very weak holdings. Idk I guess I just gotta play tighter in spots like this and not call the x raise. It looks obvious in retrospect…. Just wish I could think like this in game sometimes.
