PokerStars - $0.02 NL FAST (6 max) - Holdem - 6 players
Hand converted by Holdem Manager 3

Hero (BTN): $2.08 (104 bb)
SB: $2.10 (105 bb)
BB: $1.00 (50 bb)
UTG: $2.23 (111.5 bb)
MP: $2.26 (113 bb)
CO: $2.89 (144.5 bb)

SB posts $0.01, BB posts $0.02

Pre Flop: (pot: $0.03) Hero has 7 A
2 folds, CO raises to $0.06, Hero raises to $0.19, 2 folds, CO raises to $0.32, Hero calls $0.13

Flop: ($0.67, 2 players) 8 J 2
CO bets $0.50, Hero raises to $1.76 and is all-in, ...

CO is unknown. SB and BB are kind of tight. A7s seems OK to resteal here from time to time. CO min3bets. Great odds, IP, suited ace. Easy call.
Flop is somewhat tough. If CO only bets nuts (JJ+) here. I still look somewhat OK with 40%.


Board: 8♦J♥2♥
       Equity     Win     Tie
MP2    40.10%  40.10%   0.00% { Ah7h }
MP3    59.90%  59.90%   0.00% { JJ+ }

Problem is, that if he never bluffs in this spot I need around 44% (my $1.76 vs max potsize of around $4 after rake). So I need him to bet/fold here only a small amount of times. Maybe with AK or TT.
Want do you think? Is that a reasonable assumption?

Just fold A7s pre and start raising. A2s-A5s, ATs+.
Villains min-4bet consists probably only in very strong hands. But you get very goods odds ...

Your flop shove is good you have nut-FD. You block AJ and you have also a backdoor-SD.
But I think that you will have very less fold equity because on NL2 the people usually dont 4bet bluff. (Or has that changed over the years?)
But thats no problem you need only 30% equity for your shove and even vs. JJ you have 40% so its good.

I like the way you played the hand.
The resteal is nice. Calling the tiny 4bet is pretty much mandatory.

Sure, there are some better flops, but if you don't act on a flop like this, you shouldnt resteal with A7s. Shoving is imo the only correct response to his JJ+ (because that has a very high prob at 2NL in this situation).

How is that? As I said above I think it's 44%.
net loss of $1.76 vs net gain of $2.25 is 1:1,272 ---> 44%
or
$1.76 out of max. pot of $4 is about 44%.

Yes, sry my bad.
It should be 42.30%.

On flop you risk $1.76 to win $4.16.
1.76 / 4.16 = 42.30%

So you have a flip in this spot. At least if we assume that you have really 0% fold equity. Folding should be in long run more expensive then shoving I guess.

You do have fold equity vs his AK/AQ hands so i would say well played.
