Thanks, yeah I think x turn is maybe a mistake. I guess bet turn and give up river as his range will be too narrow for river shove

geometric... around half pot...

Also it'd be to fold out some portion of under pairs (88/99/TT) are likely mixed folds ott, and yes overcards.. AQ, AK also likely mixed folding

KQdd is good combo since unblocks suited floats also, so more combos of XXcc/XXss to fold out while simultaneously blocking QJs/KJs/QQ/KK, having equity against hands like AJs/JXs, and underpairs that sometimes continue still (88/99/TT).

Is the preflop 4bet here the right play? I usually fold this spot depending on the 3better, seem to be up against AK/AQ too often and run into kicker problems.

Nb I suck and am genuinely asking 😂

Would go b33/b50 and bluff all non heart rivers. As played river seems good.

This is never a fold preflop barring very extreme reads, but vs. smaller 3b sizing and larger stack depth the 4bing range of hero should trend more polarized compared to 100bb eff and this should probably be called quite a lot more often than 4B facing this 3b sizing and 155bb deep.

These kind of spots I struggle with a lot, 3BP or 4BP OOP with the betting lead with overcards that miss.
