  2. If you're going to doubt something, doubt your limits.
  3. anyone that doesnt have this kinda move in the arsenal wont make it at that kind of table
  4. I think that's false. Ape isn't 3 betting a hand he doesn't call with.
     
  5. that's why i said this kinda move, w/o saying this exact, meaning the potential to 4 bet w/ air
  6. Well then I agree :)
     
  7. Ari's 100% correct...but I think agriffrod's got a point too. I'm not sure I would make ape's call there with AQoff, but he obviously had a read, and wasn't going to be dissuaded from it.
     
  8. The call with AQ is becoming pretty standard. I really don't think ape is 3 betting here with the intention of folding to a 4 bet.
     
  9. Steamed I am - lost next 40k pot as 70/30 fav too.

    I usually dont try to play such huge pots with AQ but in this spot bryn had raised my blind last orbit so I knew he expected me to play back here. I intentionally made a larger raise than I usually make to commit myself and make it clear I was fairly committed. He did have some fold equity as I wasnt getting 2:1 on a call. I've made similar plays and dont think it was horrible - I just wish my hand held.

  10. Isn't the 4th bet always AA or KK?
