I don't care if we have limper, I 3bet bigger. At least 1.40. Fish could have 2 pair (gotta be careful with fish) or flush/straight draw,, they love to shove with those.

I once lost at 50nl to fish that called with ATC. I entered with AA, he calls with Q5o, and hits two pair on flop. Here, I would call 50%, and fold 50%. But, if we raise big, he might not be in the hand anyways.

preflop raise size is fine

fold flop always in this spot unless there is some crazy table dynamic

villains range is pretty much just 22 so may as well fold everything apart from KK or TT and let villain burn their EV

even if you let villains range also contain all combos that have a straight+flush draw you have no where near the right odds to call. (you need around 45% equity but you only have 25% equity)

if you think villains range has all the straight + flush draw (which it probably doesn't) you're better off calling off with a hand like ATc, which even then only just has enough equity to call.

Iso'ing to a really large size can be a decent exploit against recs that limp/call way too much.

But I personally wouldn't go huge with AKo since I don't think we need to inflate the pot with just A high. We can go 4.5 to 5bb and then go from there.

Yeah I guess thats actually probably a pretty good exploit, but what do you mean 'just A high'?

AKo would be one of the best hands to raise large as an exploit because you benefit from narrowing ranges as it increases the chances of having your opponent dominated whilst also decreasing the spr. ( assuming villain limps some Kx and Ax)

Because we win the most vs recs by value betting made hands, and occasionally bluffing in the right spots.

Since we'll have to run some bluffs with AK when we don't make a pair (and they do), I would prefer the pot to be on the smaller side so I don't feel obligated to barrel off and get called down by bottom pair.

But since I don't care about balance or worrying about them realizing what my sizings mean, I would iso bigger with AKo than I would with KJs.

Passive fish who check raises huge out of nowhere makes an easy fold. Im wondering about flop sizing, shouldn't we bet more like 3/4 here?

nah, We are IP with TPTK. I would keep his calling range as wide as possible.

I’m not sure sizing down vs fish changes their calling range much since they’re probably going to be too inelastic to bet sizing

However this is a multi-way pot so 3/4 is probably too big

This. You're going to see plenty of random bluffs here, some high equity bluffs as well. This isn't as "obvious snap fold" as it seems

Yeah. I don't think this is all that strong. Snap call.
