    I would not call on the river as thats a few cards he could of hit or he could of had a small pair, he could of had a straight or a small flush but fair do for the hero call as if you read well then its up to you to call but in the end you are calling with only Ace high

    I dont think your making this call without a solid sense of dynamic. reads and notes.

    Without having those it does look stationy and spewy.  But credit to you indeed if you put him on un paired paint, which frankly I think you must do.

    Hard to armchair analyse this one, but feel like saying "Nice brag post".  Because, if this is done with a cast iron read, its great.

    Issue being its not a clear cut river steal, as he has barrelled the whole way.

    All of ure points are spot on mate here , ive got em on AK , AQ , AJ and poss KQ as said player plays these hands exactly this way AND of course plenty of shovin players off of pots this way BUT gettin calls and showin zippo.

    Dont worry tho prob next time i feel ive got this kind of call in me ive  gotta have the EXACT feel for it and nowt less ;))

    This ties in nicely to the thread that I put up earler.  As if you have a solid read on opponents range, this becomes an "easy call" the whole way through, IN THE RIGHT SPOT.

    Nice hand :)

    Yeah tbh this is prob like 1 time in 20 AK's that have got to the river this way with myself floatin for the A or K that ive called ANY kind of bet too let alone an all-in.

    As ive stated on another thread ive ONLY been single tabling at this level this week as i moved up to it and i have been trying to avoid playing the same players as i want as many notes i can get on all oppo's who play this level , this worked for me at nl10 so i figured no point changing it.

    I have also noted 3 or 4 players who i am very keen to AVOID at this level as they are very HARD to read and very AGGRO.

    I also dont always play i simply load a table and take notes.

    wow!

    I dont like this Debs.....

    it's not gonna work very often.

    I'd really like to see you start 3betting AK, especially out of position.

    I know it's "only ace high", but we're playing poker, not cards, we're playing the players.

    Sick call tho! lol Nice when it works.

    Surely you're burning money here long term, I mean come on this is just lunatic play, I don't care how good your notes are calling 45 bb shoves on river with AK high can't be good lolz.

    Also nice brag post, make sure you post it when it goes wrong lol

    Also don't say - 'My reads were like super solid yh' nah no reads can be this good long term lol

    You are a mad puppy debdobs. Only a woman can play like that.
    Obviously it is good long-term as long as the validity of your notes and reads remain consistent.
    You just posted this to freak out people that wanted to bluff you right cos you've had enough ?
    I am amazed that you asked the question about long-term because you already know the answer.
    Fancy a game of Russian Roulette ?   :)
    You called............Genius x x x  sick

    Thing is dudeskin poster isnt talking longterm.  They are talking hand and dynamic specific.  Of course were not always stationing 3 streets with A high.

    I get the feeling poster stations flop and turn as pure non believer.  If a non believer on flop and turn River doesnt change a great deal, other than obv.

    So if we can carry on through streets as non believer we essentially have to call river.  Yes playing like this as standard is going to be awful.  But I dont get the impression poster is playing AK this way as syandard.  Thread title and action seem to be a good sell, to me anywho.

    Well as you're a REG I most likely won't AIM to play you as that would be negative EV lolz and if I did I'd most likely do pretty well looking at this, oh and I also realise you play this way against maniacs and I think its fairly obvz I don't fall into that catorgory so you would probably have to find AA v KK or just keep 3betting me light as you know I'll fold anything. :)

    Also as for hand obvz 3bet pre, but you're against that for some reason lol.

    Flop as played is surely fold with Ace high no draw but of course he bluffs.

    Turn you bet just under half pot, why are you betting, for value or as bluff but if you know he's bluffing anyway why do you need to ?

    River he shoves and you flat with Ace high, I just can't understand this as you say you won't 3bet with AK as it's only Ace high but you will call off on river with it when 1 pair beats you can you explain this please ?

    nice instincts debs, but cant see how you got a solid read on him there, maybie the shove did it for you?..dunno. 

    good long term?no. personaly i would not want to be in that situation often it aint profitable spot, its so close its ridic and i have been there myself...

    this guy three bet me tons, i took a stand with a good ace and i felt i had a solid read on his betting patterns but this call was with added frustration as he had three bet me alot and i was hitting nothing, i felt fak it you have either hit the river or you have nothing and i called like i didnt care.... 

    he three bet pre-flop, checked the flop!, bet turn(i call) and bet nearly pot on the river...i call

    and surprisingly im good

    this happened a while ago, and i cant remeber a spot like this that happened receantly .. because if i did it often i would probably be broke

    Exactly whoami , i may never do this again unless i feel exactly the same way , dudeskin you should watch some others that make calls like this at this and much higher levels , WHY do they do this cos they have the same feel as i did in this one.

    Answers to ure questions

    1. No i aint against it i just dont ALWAYS do it ( not sure what the LOL was for tho , sarcasm prob ?? )

    2. There is nowt wrong with floating AK to try and hit is there ??

    3. Why NOT bet if weve both missed he folds , should do , BUT ive already put him on a missed draw so lets continue with the hand

    4. Well i call his all in cos i believe i have the best hand , not sure why ya say i FLAT this as i cant re-raise can i ?? LOL

    Its nice to see this.

    I've always said there are multiple ways to skin a cat.  We dont have to conform to dogmatic lines, it being unwise to do so.  Sometimes having to play a hand wrong to get it right and vice versa.  EV is a core element of game, but not the ONLY element
