  • thats sickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk lol wouldnt ever fold tho
  • Ya never folding. You looked like a genius this time around though.
  • I'm not folding here. Nh though getting him to show.
  • Its one of only two times I have folded KK preflop, and both times I was right. I had played at the same table with villain for over an hour. I had only shown down strong hands the entire time, his 4-bet range was so small and we were deep stacked.

    FYP

    and why 4b then?
  • loled when i read the title
  • FYP

    and why 4b then?

    That's a good point. If I think I am ahead of his 3-bet range, why am I trying to get him to fold ? Its funny, I probably call a shove in that spot, as it doesn't look as strong as the 5-bet.
  • This is mathematically pretty easy.

    You stated you have a super soulread on this guy so:

    Define 3b range
    Define 5b range
    Define 5b shove range.

    EZ game.

    3b range - 99+ AQ+
    5b range - QQ+
    5b shove range - JJ+ AK
  • Gotta go with your reads. This was a couple of hands later. Shoves like this are almost always semi-bluffs. Overcards show up here more often than a big pair.
