Hey everyone,
In this hand, I have none information about Villain.
I decided to Shove only because the SPR is very low and I think it´s possible He Raised me with an Overpair like JJ or QQ, but for me this spot was very tough.
What are You do in this spot?

Unfortunately this is a typical situation when playing with an overpair. Your decisions will depend on the information about the enemy. You have played perfectly before 3-bet from your opponent on the flop. The fold was real here, but it's a complicated decision.

his range is more likely to be polarized to sets and flush draws while overpairs are more likely to call your bet instead of raise. but lets say he does raise your bet with an overpair. are there any other ways to get value from an overpair besides jamming all in?

It's a tough spot.


I can't make a specific conclusion. He calls your preflop 3bet, so he can't have AA, KK, maybe AKs or QQ.....On the 10-high two-tone flop he raises your Cbet, in many cases villains have the flush draw here. But you have the diamond blockers, but blockers don't work every time. You re-raise shove him and he calls, so sets are heavily in the game now.


It's an instinct spot. You may be ahead, you may be behind.



As I see the situation, probably I wouldn't have played the Kings much more differently than you played them.

I agree with what's been said in general. I think the most important thing here is that at the moment you decide to shove you thought of the chance of facing a set and you did not act impulsively (as I did many times).

In my opinion, though, this is a classic spot where a set is more likely than a flush draw...
