3-bet or fold pre. I guess fold is the correct thing to do now... not sure what he shows up with here.  Tc Jc,  Kc Jc would be nice to up against... could have 2x2x.... not entirely sure of a reason a fish could come up with for shoving Ax on this flop. For the fact that there are so many people giving it away in these comps, i'd just fold and get it in good in a less ridic variance/puke spot.

Unsure about pre so dont want to comment but flop is an abs no brainer kiss the dog and tell her you love her call

lol i havent been around on blonde for long and struggled to find posts to comment on with any valid input, although loving reading lots. But this has to be one of the fav statements ive heard on any forum. :)

wp call

not folding. you're never <50% here and of course you're getting the right price even if he shoves 1 mirrion into a pot of 1000 you're getting the right price.

As you know I've commented on this hand next door.  Just adding here to the 'call' camp.  I stand by what I said across the way that we are ahead a lot here and have a bunch of equity anyway.  Still maintaining it's a 3bet/fold spot pre though however I'm more than open to be told overwise.

Saw the result on your Twitter now as well, won't spoil it.

the 3bet is going to be a lot larger than normal because he has 3x'd it so we are risking more of our stack than normal by 3betting.

fold pre, dont 3bet a 3x'ing fish who flats ADL OOP. call now, and send some highfives about.

thanks for replies folkes,

pre flop is pretty bad, the guy was cbet folding alot so planned to make a move on any flop, obv hitting this then that happened kind of startled me a little.

Seems like a bad way tO adjust tbh.. I'd just call bigger hands oop and let him barrel off to us when we have good showdown hands.
