He likely is over-bluffing here, given we block AA and QQ, so he might presume to have more value then he actually does. If we fold every AQ combo, we are definitely folding >50% range here. Given we don't block spades, I would call against a decent reg.

Hi,

In my opinion, u are strugglin in situation with (un)balance-polarise range vs bluffcatch hands.

Here, if u have AQ, JJ or 88 it doesn't matter that much because u have a bluffcatcher vs nuts/air range so u need to find enough bluffs to make the call EV+.
U did the job...

But i think there's somethin wrong then... It means to find enough bluff here, he needs to 3 bet pf somethin around (Ax2x-AxKx, 6x7x,QQ+,AxKy) or even more, which are at least 84 combos.
If this range was linear, then u should consider a wider value range PF. (around 42 combos)
So callin3bet vs a wider 3bet range, i think is bad coz ur 4bet range has only AK,pp for value and will often be an exploitative 3bet/fold.

Flattin AK in position is good sometimes but not everytime, so im not sayin u played it bad. but u play it more as a bluffcatch hand than a polarise hand in that case. And i think ur callin range PF must be more arbritary than a standard play.

w/o info i think fold is the best play,
1) coz not sure he will 3bet+3barrel with that wide range PF
2) Playin Ace of spade as a bluff is really bad here coz it blocks a tons of bluffs
3) u always have a bluffcatch hand in Qx area + value range and fold equity didn't change much.

You said that "i have A5s, 56s, 44, 55, 67s, maybe even 88 so i think i'm not so overfolding". But all this hands isnt bluffcatchers. I think you need to have some bluffcathers here. And AQ is good enough, because you block some part of his value range and based on this balance bluffs/value in his range can be broken. At the same time you are not blocking his bluff range, obv if you have A spades here you should fold. So i agree with Synapse.
