    After he called my squeeze preflop, and my cbet on the flop, i was thinking about giving up of the hand since Ax was a very probable holding for him.
    But once he bets so small on the turn i can't fold my KK, even vs a range of sets Ax and some flush draws i have about 30% equity and i only needed ~24% to make the call profitable.
    So my reasoning to shove this turn was the following:
    I don't think he would bet that small with an A after i showed weakness and with the draw on the board. So i think it is safe to discount a lot of Ax combos from his range, the same goes to sets.
    I'm not to worried about some 2p like 67,64 because i doubt he would call a squezze preflop with those hands even suited.
    So i think his range here is mostly draws, am i right?
    Vs this kind of range i believe it his better to just shove trying to charge the maximum from his draws.
    What do you think of this line?

    Flop is meh, and turn is spew. Given that villain raised his first hand, utg, to 3bb he's more likely than not to be a reg, and likely has a relatively tight range, both for opening and calling the squeeze. I think he's mostly got Ax+ here, especially after he bets the turn. Not a lot of flush draws in his range bc the Ac is out.

    I understand your point.
    I'm having a lot of dificultty to build my bankroll because of hands like this one.
    I feel like my A game is much better than the average from this player pool, then in 10 minutes i burn all my winnings, and it is not by variance it's by doing basic and stupid mistakes when i'm a bit tilted.
    Just now i've burned 10$ in 8 minutes because i was suckded out on one hand and then started forcing things, and being spewy.

    I think spews are something you just have to teach out of yourself, keep reviewing hands like this where you've obviously gone nuts & and be pissed off at yourself & it will make you better able to keep your head in future situations such as this.
