Eurgh spot tbh. Think WWW has 10s based cold calling and checking flop. Probs call and find out cos I'm a fish.

both of them look pretty solid, not spazzy.overly aggro based on what is admittedly a very small sample of hands.

I dont think that WWW would lead the turn that wide, I don't think Brittney would expect him to, and I have no idea what he cold peels from the BB when he seems like he's quite active PF (just form his 3b stat although this is clutching at straws a bit) when I assume you also are.

So I don't really know what we can Vraise vs, what we need to protect vs that isn't a pretty limited set of spade spade combos or what WWW DOESN't 4bet but now leads.

Basically I don;t know. Anxious to hear some people who are cleverer than me's opinions cos this looks like a spot where i'm hating my life ongame doesn't have a timebank.

Oh god this really sucks, don't raise that'd be stupid. I guess call and fold river. Maybe even fold turn.

flop got checked through how can we possibly ever fold here? call >raise > fold, 1000% shoving over a small river bet too.

I'm so happy I don't play poker for a living.

Bit of hard earned wages going down the toilet here for me unfortunately.

Would be playing totally passive but not folding unless the board pairs again or the river brings an evil jack.

Not bothered if it flushes, that'd just be unlucky.

Not bothered about river ruining our action obviously as I'm playing passive.

By the way when I say passive I actually mean pot control. Passive is weak so I'll call it something else to make me sound a bit better.

Does anybody want to hazard a guess at the EV of a shove? The major unknown here is WWWs range to cold call a 3b obv, I only have a very vague idea and think people's opinions could vary wildly so would be very interested to hear some. Spoiler: I shoved, someone tell me how bad it is please, results to come...
