Cliff notes - my hands face up, hes a good player, he has discounted value range but I have better hands to call with and don't have to call everytime as the price is so bad
Interesting hand for discussing how to build check call ranges against top players. I had just played a couple of hands at this table but my reads on the opponent are thats hes played 4k games this year, 193k winnings with 93k profit so i presume he plays a ton of tables and has a good understanding of the game. He probably doesn't know anything about me.
What do you think of my line? How thin does he go for value? How often do you think he trys to barrel me off the ten i obv have? I think I like a flop check as his flop calling range has many hands we dominate and I'd rather bet JT if it didnt have backdoor spades. I could potentially have led turn to get value vs small pairs and AQ. On river he proabably knows my range is quite capped.
There is a chance I could have checked twice to induce with KK or 33. I have better Tx to call with. I decided he narrows his bluffing range by checking back flop (discounts QJ,J9,AQ bluffs by checking althoguh AQ he may check). His only value hand that makes sense is 33 but this looks like AQ. He bet huge here and at the time I thought I'd call with AT, KT and maybe QT so i can fold what has now become the bottom of my turn check call range.
