Hero (SB): $5.00
BB: $5.58
UTG: $2.57
UTG+1: $4.28
MP1: $1.14
Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is SB with Q :diamond: K :diamond:
1 fold, UTG+1 raises to $0.10, 4 folds, Hero calls $0.08, BB raises to $0.40, 1 fold, Hero raises to $0.80, 1 fold
Both players are unknown.
UTG+1 is 24 / 18 / 2 (25%) over 18 hands, from canada
BB is 11 / 11 / 0 over 10 hands (sit out after this hand ), from argentina.
This is kind of relevant since SA players love to pull moves even in 2NL so I assumed that goes for 5NL too.
Now, I know the call is pretty spewy but I am experimenting with various tactics in 5NL and if my hand hits I figured I can make a killing even OOP. It is not like KQs is garbage.
BB reraise is an obvious squeeze spot so I decided to surprise him and see what he does. I do have a decent hand, obviously if he jams I gotta fold but in this case he gave up.
My line seems super strong since limp shove is usually KK+ and my line seems powerful (less bluffy than a shove).
Plan on the flop is to rep a big PP, cbet and fold to a raise if I whiffed.
Obviously I am counting on 2 things:
1) BB is indeed squeezing with a non-premium hand
2) BB is able to interpret my line as I want him to
1. Am I an idiot or this actually makes sense?
2. My 4bet sizing?
