AQs/AJs/KQs/99/88/77 is what our CO 3bet calling range is built around.

XR flop a ton vs that really small sizing.

As played just call down with your bluff catcher

interesting, i actually don't have an xr range in this spot (i do on the flush draw variant) which is probably a leak of mine, i'll try to implement that. so its a lot of gutshots i imagine? and what sizing, like 3x the tiny bet?

You can donk turn as well if you do decide to just call since we have a massive Jx advantage.

Lots of different ways to play this hand

We do?

Should be folding all offsuit Jx, and AJs/KJs will probably mix in some 4b pre.

I'm talking about relative to the combos you have not overall. BTN 3bets 200+ combos here and is ranging flop.

So that means he has 200+ combos OTT. How many of those are Jx? less than 10-15% of his range?

CO's range is much more condensed which means even if we have less overall combos - we have more combos relative to our range.

So we can donk lead.

Sorry just saw this was 4 handed, so I guess we do have some AJo, QJs and J9s, but so does BTN.

donking middle pair in srps is something i've implemented recently to good results, makes sense to do it in some late position 3bpots as well i guess

Tough to have a better pure bluff-catcher. Block QsJs, AsJs, QTs

Not my stakes, but is villain rly dbl barrel air on this turn or triple all A on river? co vs btn we have a lot of J's to bluffcatch and villain have a lot of J's to valuetown us as btn, not sure aq is great bluffcatcher, we actully block villain kq that can take this line, IMO we are calling for a split here at best, but hero should decide what to do given how creative is villain with finding bluffs here.
