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
