On a serious note, in regard to the hand. It just seems way too close. I think I fold just because people taking this line just generally have it. Whether he has 3sXs or KQ or 33/AA, it seems tough for him to have many value hands here and even tougher to think he would play a decent % of these this way. I think I just sigh-fold knowing i'm behind a decent %, but preserving my stack and because i'm Trigg I know i'll just win a bunch of chips in other less pukey spots.

Interestingly, do you think it becomes more/less of a call in a mid-stakes MTT? or vs an unknown?

ye snap it off vs most opponents

As played, I think I fold the river, I don't like it, but I am gonna put him on either KQ or 1010, I would say prob 10's, it looks like he knows what type of hand u have and is going for full value to get u to pay him off.

Just my feel on it, and from all information you have provided about his style, and also what I know of yours.

It was on the pokerstars big game, where you are given 100k to play with and any profit you make you keep but if you make a loss you get nothing. So this guy was a deece amount ahead and the money obv meant a lot to him and the show was nearing the end, so he folded.

Not saying I agree with the fold but there is context to it.

kirbynator will have a decent idea of what our range is in this spot, and go ahead and get value from that range by betting the turn when he has these hands. Sometimes he may check the turn sure, but the reasons that make him do that should still hold true on the river, meaning he will check to trigg there too. i think it's really important that both the  and  are removed from his range here, because the check call turn/donk river line makes no sense without either of them.

This is my favourite comment on the video

OK, thinking more about this hand, and just reading how the action went a bit more, then I'd actually be more inclined to put him on a flush more than anything.

Once the turn is checked by him and he calls triggs bet, then by the river, he knows that u have something pretty strong here, so to bet pot on river, knowing that u know what your doing, knowing you know he knows what he is doing, seems pointless if he hasn't got the flush. A small fd would bet the flop to rep the ace, and check the turn to try and get there as cheap as possible on river?

Once Trigg bets turn, he knows trigg has something decent, therefore I think it's why he has jammed on the river, to try and make him pay him off.

If he has been playing a TAG game thus far, then I can't see him spazzing out now? Especially as he knows that Trigg is real decent and a top thinking player?

Think he's be more incline to value KQ/1010 and at this level would probably check call other Ace X that were winning p/f.

I would still go for a fold, main reason would be that I can wait for better spots vs weaker opponents that you know will 100% gift you chips the more pressure u put on them, even tho it's a high buy in, I still think there are value players that play them, and I don't think Trigg is one of them.

Fascinating hand tho, post moarrrrrrrrrr pls x

I actually did lol at that.

I do think it's the most intriguing hand on the first page though.
