tightlines

looks like a pretty spectacular spot really... vs a rando in those trnys it's like you said, essentially his entire range presumably is a spazz out, he has too much stuff you dominate like under pairs to do anything but high five yourself and hope you called fast enough to get a good run out ;) ... if you were considerably deeper i.e. if he had jammed like 100bb+ effective folding to avoid a range your likely closer to flipping against that early is much more viable...

was there short stacks at the other table? i'm basically on board with michaels default range here, although assuming this isn't a turbo, and without reads assuming i felt i had a big edge on the remaining field i might make a tight fold here

I agree that pistons87 cold call here probably is pretty face up and I like the range you constructed. If pistons87 perceives both of you to have a decently wide range here his flat looks so nutty he could use the appearance of his own range to open it up a bit but I also think this is pretty doubtful. Would you have bet AQ on the flop? I agree with the fold on the turn although the turn card and action made it pretty easy on us, and we are certainly faced with at least a slightly more difficult decision on the turn on average as played.

"I'd much rather take 88 to a flop than A5s/JQs against an UTG flatting range personally..." this... and against a lineup like this we are going to be flatted a decent amount here I would personally fold both this hand as well as the kq/aj range and opt to open a hand like 78s that isn't going to flop top pairs that are no good vs this competent fields flatting range and has deception and some playability... i ramble so i hope that makes sense, I also agree that it is fine to basically not have a raise fold range in this spot at all...

what if anything do we know about Ocram79? I would not think that you are "way" ahead of hdjgkfkgsdl's shoving range here unless Ocram has been limping a lot...

does anyone like leading really small to induce here? I liked the post flop thought process, I would agree w ramage if we were 33 bb deep but i think we are considerably deeper than that although I could easily be missing something... I would be 4b getting in before jamming this deep imo
