I dont 3-bet just for one limper , cryptopapi just called in under the gun , if i reraise the player raised 5 BB and cryptop get all in , it was very hard to call the 75 big blind ... is that true ?
Thank you for posting.
We make a mistake when we do not 3 bet because our Villains might 4 bet.
Our V could fold to a 3 bet as often as 4 bet which in this hand would be a great result.
Our V could just call building a big pot and we win vs their JJ-66 or AJ etc
We also force the limper to commit more chips to chase a pot and open the betting again so the limper knows they may have to call all-in to play their hand preflop and fold because of it.
As played on the turn our Villain has too many hands that have us beat for us to shove
all-in when we have the redraw.
Also the V bet a size that should get 0 folds from you we need to ask why?
We are holding the As so we know it is not a nut spade blocker bet and few players small bet a combo draw semi
bluff there.
If the V was
bluffing the sizing gets few folds on the river when they shove as others have said they would call turn call river so it is not a strong bluff setup sizing.
So when we reverse engineer this hand we see how the V was thinking. They had the second nut straight on turn and second nut flush draw and they were blocking a lot of your nut hands so they bet smaller for value as a shove would get you to fold too much of your non nut strong holdings.
When we estimate ranges in these scenarios we have to avoid GTO range estimates -as this player limped J9off EP so GTO play is not a factor here-.
What does that mean? As we saw here the V's lead on turn was value so vs non GTO villains we can weight their play in spots like this to 90% value leads and no thin value so 1 pair is not going to be good here.
Hope this helps
