Question: Is everyone fist pumping hand #2? Also, do you like a call and allow him to shove the turn vs. just shoving over top? Also, does anyone think he is capable of adjusting and would find a fold here?

Shove or flat vs. nit....

Villain: 12/9/3.5 This guy has a set or AKc. So in this spot do we like a call.

Turn: ($31.00) A (2 players)

Question:
And based on his turn size what are you thought and do we surrender or try and move him off his hand?

Call Or Shove vs agg?

Villain: 18/13/2.4 in 3 k hands. my notes show that he is calling a wide range from the bb and he semi bluffs a ton in and out of position. It would make sense since his check raise stat on the flop is 17 percent.

While my equity appears decent in the hand vs. his range do we want to just get it in here? Do you suggest a call shove or call off a blank turn? Is it spew to get it in. Also, do you prefer a shove or click it back to 22.

Based on the 11 percent and the assumed range ( have to give villain much wider range then a standard fr utg player. I am thinkng 8+,AJs+,AhTh,KJs+,KhTh,QhJh,QhTh would take this line and I am almost 50/50 in this spot vs. his range.

Question: does my range given seem on target. Do you see this as an easy fold spot?
