Any thoughts on best play here? Skeip1 3b a ton and makes a squeeze here. on flop think shove was ok maybe or float fold better? in hindsight think min 4b pre / fold may have been better.

Wow these low stakes play aggressive. On the flop id never raise here. You are in position so if you dont want to fold just call and re-evalue on the turn. By shoving you are risking your stack and if he has an overpair you are drawing to 4 outs. This is even worse imo since you are 200bb. Awful play imo.

Cheers for the feedback.  I was thinking I have almost 40 per cent equity here with the overs back door ajd gut sgot and a expect alot of fold equity I mean he stacked off with middle pair. agree should have reevaluate d on turn given stack sizes.

I would have liked a 4bet bluff better than the line you took esp. Since you are IP.

You said it yourself he likes to squeeze so squeeze back, you have position and you have hand that could flop great.

As played I fold to the pot size OTF your not repping much by shoving and I don't think you're  shoving with any set in that spot 200BB deep!

Agree with Rob5ter  "awful play"!

A flat is fine pre-flop.  You're in position, very deep, and have a hand that plays super well post flop.  The flop raise is puzzling.  A float is much better, as stated above.  Even if you do raise as a semi-bluff, a 5.1x raise is risking too much.

I think in this spot by overshoving you are turning your hand face up. You often see people do this with AK/AQ/AJ on low boards. You are essentially allowing him to play perfectly against your, would you ever do this with a T or overpair? Or would you usually raise to 16-20$


I just see this play A LOT at micro stakes and it is usually always overcards and often very easy to call.

Cheers for the comment s guys. Think we have consensus that the flop shove was awful that deep. Probably why im stilo playing low stakes hahs. Will take it on board eo dont spew again!

So guess after flat pre  floating is best on flop? I expect him to barrel almost all turns so guess it would be fold to any turn barrel unimproved and bet if checked to?
