Player was calling super light in some spots training to knock out people and get their bounties, ie 52o against a 10BB shove and 108o against 13BB shove. He was 3 betting and 5 betting AQo getting called off by another AQo against. He had shown he was willing to fold in some spots where he got shoved on, but all in all he was a reg who'd played in a ton of tournaments and had results.

Last 70 players I was probably around 50th.

    If this guy is raising a lot like a 20 - 30 rfi over a decent sample, I like the shove. In these bounty builders we should be more inclined to fast play our good hands as we can exploit the fact people are often bounty hunting wide. If you have a good bounty V can call with lots of lower pairs and dominated Ax hands like A5s etc.

    Im not sure flatting the raise has a higher ev as we miss a lot of flops and encourage multiway action behind. I think shoving is better for our range overall as we play the top of our range like AK,JJ+ like this anyway and V is likely to r/f alot maybe even 50% of the time if he is often light, the other 50% of the time we usually have around 40% equity vs a calling range which is decent

    I like the shove, hes an aggressive player and since you have him covered he's less likely to call light with no bounty to win.
