I'm experimenting with 3bet resteals and how to fight them.
The Idea is that you float one or show aggression so when a draw-heavy board hit I decided to raise.
Sometimes I have success, sometimes not but definitely no disasters so far.
I really think the road to crushing 2NL tables is 'opponent reading' in combination with hard (semi) bluffing.
I am really not saying I played this hand well. For me it is an interesting hand. Maybe for somebody else too.
Villain took his time and then called so I thought I was eh.. 'filet' and I put him on AA KK QQ JJ for that.
On the turn I looked at my stack and then at the pot and I what I thought was that I was pot committed so I jammed.
(I would *not* have called an all in but I do not know if that is right to lay down in that case, I think so though :f_wink:.
Of course I got lucky but found it really interesting to see the jam work.
Also when you turn things around.. For him It should looks crazy scary but he should have called not? To me he looks pot committed too.
