Hey guys, I'm back with a few new hand histories.
In this hand villain is a decent reg, 28/19 AFq 44. Opens BU around 70% and has folded 2/9 times to a 3bet being IP on the BU.
On the flop I decided to c/c, my potential JJ blockers play a lot better by c/c and keeping the SPR high and my NFD has a lot of deception. I also don't really make many (or any) better hands fold by beting flop and have a tough time on most turns that don't bring me a flush. I can also induce some stabs from hand with very little equity (J98x or A9xx or bare middle FD's with a pair)
Turn i think is standard c/c, I still can have a bunch of JT9(8) hands as well as K5/K8 type hands and I'm still able to use my blockers OTR if a broadway hits.
Now river is super interesting, we hit aces up, which doesn't look like a very strong hand on that board, but if we consider what our range looks like that we get to the river with than we realise that we're at the top of our range here, as we will have no sets in our range (blank AA I'm c/f and those with NFD I'm c/potting flop with) and no 76 since SPR on the turn is so low. So what we end up here is AK-, although I'd propopably bet most of my AKx hands on the flop that I'm 3betting pre, so we look at a range of basically A9 and A8 being the top of our range here. Now with our blockers to all possible draws this hand is propably still a c/f, but say if we wanted to construct a openshoving range on the river as a bluff, what hands would we want to add there for value, if A9 is the best hand we can get here with? On the other hand, does it mean we can't openjam this river if playing a somewhat balanced strategy because our range is so weak? And finally, what hands do we wanna c/c that we get to the river with so that we don't c/f 100% of our range?
