Slowplays AA PRE

Hi !

I need your opinion on this spot :

The CO opens 4bb, Hero 3B to 12bb, then a fish cold call the 3B, then the CO 4B to 26bb.

This is NL25 table, and I was thinking about an alternative strategy where we can make the EVmax move :

  • by 5BAI and play a HU pot against the CO most of the time (standard and definitely EV+ move) ?

  • by calling the 4B and keeping the fish in the pot most of the time (alternative and maybe EVmax move) ?

Arguments for the 5BAI :

  • we never make a mistake later in the spot

Arguments for calling the 4B :

  • we crush the CO ranges made of QQ+,AK and we don't have to make protection from it
  • the fish can make huge mistakes post flop

against someone who 4 bets against 2 players his range is extremely value heavy and he's not bluffing without strong reads.

I assume that he never bluffs here and his range is well defined to {QQ+, AK}

A fish will never fold in this spot almost 100 percent of the time i think.

You mean against a shove ?

The fish @ BB had just cold call a 3B of 12bb, he isn't shortstack and project that he'll call my shove "almost 100 percent of the time" seems very optimistic to me :-/

My bad,i thought the fish you were referring to was the 4better,in that case calling is higher EV to keep the fish in .
