I mostly 3bet or fold this raggy aces in the sb as Im not happy to play them multi way oop. Thats a contentious strategy though and plenty of people will tell you flatting here is fine. Think the rest of the hand sorts played itself. Definitely too thin for a river lead and obviously we are delighted to see villain check back otr.

You played it passively all the way through. Calling was too loose in the sb as suggested already I think folding or three bet were the much more profitable plays. Don't just click buttons, A8s out of position after an open is a very mediocre hand. You really need to tighten up your small blind and I'd guess general calling ranges.

Sorry, I am new to this forum and how you extract hands and post them here, so I have one question that came up reading your post:

How do you know the following:

"BTN mucks 89 (Two Pair, Nines and Eights)"

Does pokertracker allow you to see other players mucked cards?

Fold A8dd Preflop:

This is Sb vs Co RFI and BTN call



You shouldn't really have a flatting range preflop from sb, in this spot.

Fold to a pot sized bet on flop when there is another caller.

On turn, most definitely behind, villain betting into dry side pot is very nuttish. but cant fold equity.

Good check on river, shouldnt have a leading range.

I don't mind a 3bet with A8s in this spot, CO whatever and the button is probably weak. As played, the call from the button on the flop is pretty strong with a player yet to act. You only have middle pair and a backdoor flush draw so this is a fold. Turn is close with a paid and the nut flush draw, you still have to beat the CO though so with these odds this might still be a fold.

I am always, always, always leading the river here. You are almost always ahead here and hate a check back (to the person who says we are obviously delighted to see a check back, have you misread the hand?)

May I ask where did you generate/find these ranges?

They're a little bit wonky solver generated solutions. The partial boxes indicate that you need to use a randomizer to generate a random number while you're holding a variety of hands to play the strategy. I don't think I've ever squeezed 66/77 in my life nor can I imagine being exploited by anybody for not squeezing 66 at some fraction.

Anyways I'd argue most people incorrectly squeeze a tighter range than the one in the infographic.
