This is pretty ambitious. Even if he thinks your range is capped due to your sizing, which seems like a pretty tenuous thought process, your range is still strong such that he's not going to want to rip KJo in every time. People who are expecting him to 5b jam 100% of the time are just straight up incorrect. ApeStyles is a good player and I think it's fair to assume he is more balanced than doing 100% of something with his entire range at some point unless he has you pegged as some mega-exploitable moron which is unlikely. It's far more likely that he will just 3b/5b a wider value range (hands like 66-88, AJ, KQ) than just 3b/decide to 5b jam with something like A3s. Sure those situations do come up, but there's no reason for you to think this is one of them. I think a far better overall strategy vs ApeStyles is keeping your 4b size the same for your entire range. I would probably just call the 3 bet with ATo. I think it's pretty ambitious to 4b/c it under nearly all circumstances, but especially vs him who is pretty solid. 4b folding seems fine too.

Think this is /thread to be honest. Yeah in hindsight i also though my 4b/c was really ambitious, hence the thread and asking peoples opinions. I really didn't like it after some thought.

Who won?

[pleno1]

Hm disagree that good players don't do x with 100% of their range.

[Rupert]

Eh yeah I guess that's wrong, but in this instance, and most preflop instances, it's a correct statement I think

Topical in so many ways.

I don't understand why we'd want to induce a shove with a view to calling off in this spot, against an opponent who has us covered and given we still have 40 bb's.... just seems massively high variance, given it's only rag Aces we're far ahead of?
