i agree that shoving turn is better than calling, if the river bricks here he will shove and u have to fold, i found myself calling too much on the turn in spots like this which is a big leak,, but ingame its difficult sometimes to do the right thing, gotta work on it!

why do you think that villains 4betcalling range is so wide pretty early in the match? i believe we can accurately exclude all pairs(if he is 3betting small pairs then he is doing it for shoving into a 4bet,big pairs are shoving esp given the recent aggro dynamic,AJs++ prob is shoving ) .It seems to me that his 4bet calling range consists of broadways,suited connectors,gappers the majority of time here...

u said about villains bluffing range that either hearts missed or he turned pair into bluff..
dont u think that villain will bet most of his heart draws ott?
isnt any 50nl player able to realize that 7x,6x doesnt have any showdown value otr?

given the stack depth,why do u think a maniac would check back Ac(maybe Kc) ott ?u said he is afraid of C/R but i dont think we will see hero C/R there (because most of his range is now improved to pair+draw that just flats,hero isnt C/R a flush OTT given that villain is a barrel junkie)...
As played, what are u doing if villain overbets the river?

i think you can say that your range is a better bet than mine if we're betting on what this guy's range is in a vacuum and stopping there. it's just more likely that our opponent is a player who has a more reasonable range, because there are more players that play reasonable ranges to a 4-bet than psychos/donks who call any two cards. but i don't really believe that making that assumption this early is useful, i'd rather keep the range wide and play based on the board texture, my hand and his actions, and narrow his range further as the hand proceeds.

i don't think we can assume he'll bet most of his heart draws on the turn. re: the 2nd part of your question, sure, most 50nl players will realize that those hands are no good on the river. doesn't mean they won't call anyway (or fold instead of checkraise)

depends on the size of the overbet, i'm usually calling in this spot unless it's >2x pot.

re: the first part of the question, i don't think he would check back Ac or Kc always, i think he could and if he did that would be his reasoning. the point i'm trying to make in my answers to these questions (and in the video) is that if you're making too many hard assumptions against a player you don't have stone cold reads on, you're going to end up being surprised more often than you want to be surprised.

good pt abt stack depth though, i think i probably wasn't considering that, makes it a lot more likely he's going to bet those hands

i wouldn't like it but yeah, unless his bet sizing was so large it smelled... then i would consider folding.

if u think that when the board pairs,villain will not 2B with overpairs,pairs,then why do u think on a Q river he would fire 77,88 ???
