Pleno you always post the most complicated PHA's!

If we're shoving here aren't we bluiffing nearly all the time?  We may get folds from jj-kk but how often do you expect to get called by worse?

He's reraised you pre, with a stack of $511 to your $1849, so we have to assume strong a strong range. Hands he 'might' fold (JJ,QQ) but I reckon he's turning up with AA/AK/AQ more often here, particularly given the flat to your raise on the flop. So I think most of the time you're bluffing into his range of hands on the turn. A turn shove is often going to be interpreted as an attempt to rep the Ace, or semi-bluffing Q-J type hands. If you are continuing I think a bet of $175-180 achieves the same as the all in, as to him you'll look pot committed anyway?

Pretty su rePleno is looking to get called by worse, not so much fold better

I persoanlly think you need dynamic for that so rush aint the place imo

Disagree that villain will show up with ak/aq nearly always gonna fold these otf as these hands have v little equity vs our perceived range.

Yeah turn shove definitely doesn't work as a bluff, so title is accurate.  In general the bar needs to be set pretty high for a value bet as you need to be called by more worse hands than better (there could be some merit in betting for protection).  Since villain can have a very large number of better hands that call, I think this is very unlikely to be a good spot for a thin value bet, even if all his 9x and Tx are calling (also unlikely).  I way prefer check/fold, as imo check/raises get more respect in 3b pots, or if you really think you're good most of the time then check/shove is better than just shoving imo.

Also r/folding pre, might 4b/f versus a lot of people at normal 6m but I feel like at zoom there aren't many 3b/f's about, although I haven't played it much.

zoom500 plays way different to any game, ever. KTo is in my 4betting range as standard, but i defend wider vs these hero's.
