thank you Lloyd
what is the thinking/theory about a big overbet shove with a monster hand here? why not just value bet and try and extract more streets of value?
btw he showed J7 suited when I folded.
coz the hands he can get 2 streets of value from that are not sevens are non-existent if opponent is competent. given he is trying to stack you an overbet doesnt need to be called that often to be profitable, say a $30 might get called 7/10 but $200 might get called 2/10 (given how his range interacts with that board, cant be bothered to go through his exact range+ the math but look on 2+2/DC etc and its generally right on these boards, AA on K3332 and A3 on AK333 are other sweet spots (actually much better than this)) It will show that overbetting here is the best line provided:-
a) if opponent has a seven he will call a huge overbet and you will double through him, maximising profit.
b) if opponent has any other hand you will not be able to extract more out of him. He wont call/raise unless you are beaten on the river, like he houses/flushes up.
They used to be really effective for stacking donkeys/bad regs. Now people (better players) have realised robotic players dont balance these bets. When solid tags/abc types use overbets i laugh. at the moment they work really well as bluffs versus thinking players.
