I have a bit of a problem with that. I'm really not looking to bluff anyone off top pair as a rule as it just doesn't work well enough. Also we are choosing to bluff in a spot where he has a simple call/fold decision with no future bets to worry about. I'd much prefer to ch/c on the river than turn AT into a bluff here.
Not really too many reasons to just call in this spot. Its going to be very hard to navigate the hand OOP against a button range when we are likely to have 1-2 over cards on most flops. Also we give ourselves multiple ways to win the pot by 3 betting:
1) He folds to the bet - this is great if he folds T9 type hands that have great equity v us.
2) He shoves - we call and will win x% of the time.
3) He calls and we win postflop either by being able to represent a hand on higher boards or by showing down the best hand or flopping a monster.
By just calling pre we have to either make the best hand or do a lot of calling down in spots that arent amazing for us.

What do you think about shoving the river with the ATo hand at 06:30? Try and get him off KX? and you can have the straights and two pairs

I was thinking the same to rep straight, but this is a pretty good rule ^^

Hi. You said that you need to fold AJ on TT2 flop. Our eq not enough for call vs draw or small pairs ?
