Poker Video: No Limit Hold'Em by BalugaWhale (Mid Stakes)

I think I would fold every street in the last hand lol. When we call the flop and raise the turn, we are basically bluffing with 2 outs. Wouldn't it be better to take that line with hands like QJ? If he feel we have to bluff at some point with 55, why even bother playing it? Why not bluff with hands that have more outs?

Round 4

Andrew, you stole my handdiscussion ;-)

Can't we argue that the 2nd time this guy takes a cold 4bet line after we have already shoved on him that he would be more inclined to do this with a value hand? Then again, if we have AA then we're probably stacking his value hands postflop anyway

I think we need a call flop, check shove turn option. Simply because I think we can rep more drawing hands and maybe get looked up by worse Qs and maybe even Jx. Obviously, the risk here is him checking back and taking a free card otr with strong draws, but if he's aggressive enough, I think it's a viable risk to take. What you say?

I think it depends a lot in his flop aggression here. If hes agressive enough to bet jacks or weak queens, I would surely go for check-raising. Otherwise, at the turn we'll see 2 options if we check-raise flop: or we shove and get called by better queens/KK/JJ/AA; or we shove and he simply can't call with his draws, and folds. I would go, in general, for a check/call flop and check/shove turn.
