River is a shove especially against a rec player. Plenty of second best hands can call, sets, straights or even Aj, AA, KK ect. You will value own yourself occasionally but it will still show a profit.

As played I like a check raise. Your hand is likely to be ahead now but is vulnerable.
I’d mix had like KQs and KJs into my check raising range to have some bluffs.
I think if your going to play A4o You should consider a 3 bet pre.

See some merit to a turn x/shove as played. Would be betting about 700k in a 1mill. You usually have the best hand and can deny a lot of equity to villain.
Preflop a mixed strategy seems fine.

A larger size is best on flop as 1) charges draws 2) maximises value against Qx 3) sets up a larger bet on the turn where you will often want to be able to protect your hand against draws.

As played shoving turn is fine. Real mistake here is you sizing prefolp a 3 bet that small prices villain in to call with their entire range and leaves you an awkward stack to pot ratio on the flop.
If you make it somthing like 9.6bb B.B. pre you can just shove flop causing villain to offtern fold out equity.

Looks perfectly played

The quality of the players in the blinds is the critical factor.
To protect your equity Shove against good players that would otherwise play back at you.
Against Week tight players particularly at a FT you will do better raising small as they will fold to much and you can fold when they shove if they only do it with very good holdings.
Either way if BB got out of the way SB is to small a stack in the specific example for you not to call.

Call it’s a good opportunity to get in cheep and you will be able to realise your equity pretty effectively on playable flops.
If you end up folding flop you still have about 10 B.B. a good shoving stack.
Dec. 3, 2018 | 10:52 a.m.
Easy shove
Dec. 3, 2018 | 10:47 a.m.
Just fold KQ off utg. I’d be very surprised is you showed a profit with this in the long run.
Dec. 3, 2018 | 10:45 a.m.
I prefer a raise on the turn if you are going to play but think Folding is best unless the villain is fireing multiple streets very wide.
Like Kim joe said then general population tendency is to underbluff at low stakes so I would want a solid read to play back.

I like the check call on the river. Villain will end up with lots of nut blockers by river. Hand like kq, kj, 910 which they may use to bluff and they will have some value hands u still beat most commonly qj possibly a4 etc
Yes they will show u a winner plenty when you call but overall this should show a profit.

If villain is calling your 3 bet to wide pre I would bet flop to avoid facing this situation.
However if villain is calling with a reasonable range this feels like a check fold. Especially as 1010 blocks a lots of drawing combos that you would want left in his range.
If your constructing a checking range on this board what else are you including?
Nov. 9, 2018 | 10:10 a.m.
Gross river spot but I'd have to call. Pot is about 8k at this point and you calling 1750. Need to be good about 22% of the time.
Nov. 7, 2018 | 4:51 p.m.
Feels like 99 is betteras a turn call. Leaves BB with a wider range on the river and allows you a profitable call or bet.
As played you raise turn for value but are you then comfortable betting river for value after your called on turn.

Slam dunk call

Shove pre, 77 will struggle to realise equity otherwise.

Question here isn't should we get chips in, it's how can we do that most effectively.
I think a check raise makes the most sense as villains range will still include some week or drawing hands. This will be especially true given your small 1/3 flop sizing.
I like the x/shove turn when we have value hands as well.
Oct. 2, 2018 | 1:24 p.m.
Whilst you may have the best hand on the flop you will struggle to realise that equity against a winning reg.
The 3 bet on the flop makes sense as villain will not often have better than a pair.
However I don't see any need to bet pot. Raising small still puts a vast amount of pressure on one pair hands.
Many of these will end up calling but then you have a nice spot to bet profitably on the turn again with a small bet.
This line will also allow you to gain extra value when you do have a value hand on the flop.

Call Pf, call flop, fold turn.
Oct. 2, 2018 | 12:51 p.m.
I think you answered your own question. They call to much so Tighten up a bit and exspect to get value when you have a hand more than you deserve.
Sept. 5, 2018 | 2:42 p.m.
Q9 should be folded pre.
As played I'd check fold turn when the worst card in the deck hits.
Really hard for villain to have enough bluffs here to make calling profitable.
Sept. 5, 2018 | 2:01 p.m.
J isn't the best river card as most straights get their and KJ overtakes but small blind can still have enough flush draws, 67, AJ etc that I think this is a mandatory call.
Aug. 16, 2018 | 11:58 a.m.
Check raise flop and jam turn
Aug. 2, 2018 | 2:58 p.m.
If your right that villain bets all air on turn then calling is best. K6 beats all air and draws. If player is really that wide I'm happy to call turn and river.

I agree with milko. Their will be plenty of better candidates in your range to use as a flop bet. I prefer to bet here with hands that are strong made hands or big draws or very weak. I can ballence this by checking hands such as q10, 109, 99 which can improve to big hands or act as bluff catchers.
Having A10 with the A of spades I really want to realise my equity. As played You have to fold the turn but if you checked flop you have an easy turn call.

Co raises to 67 leaving only 73. Reraising with the hope of isolating one player and getting some dead money in the pot Is clearly the best play.
When utg calls I'm not thrilled at a q94 flop but it's a clear shove. Utg will still have plenty of folds and you will be doing fine most times he calls.
July 11, 2018 | 3:21 p.m.
Looks like villain had only slightly more than a pot sized bet on the turn. Why not set him in given the range you put him on?
July 11, 2018 | 1:35 p.m.
Shove AJ is to good. I hate the big stack acting after me and hate knowing nothing about him but AJ 4 handed is so strong.
Given that their are some exstream short stacks I would be playing a tight shoving range something like A10+, KQ+ and most pairs.
If the big stack doesn't get moved into that seat I'm going to open up my shove range a fair bit and try to put some pressure on those 2 ultra short stacks.
A6 Suited is a fold utg+1. It’s the worst suited A as it can’t flop a straight and kicker will rarely play.
