First off, apologies for the format, I can't figure out how to work the hand history converter on this site.  If anyone could walk me through it I would really appreciate it, as I hope to use this feature much more to improve my play.

Both the guy who 3bet and the guy who 4bet had been pretty taggy and their HUD stats reflected this, the guy who 4bet I definitely put on a monster hand like AA or KK, so I thought this was a pretty bad spot for me to be getting in and that I would be a pretty big underdog.  What do you guys think?

Nevermind, seems the hand history came out quite nicely!

CL at the table opens, gets 3bet and then 4bet relatively early position by players noted as somewhat tight. I fold here and try to not grimace too much if an ace hits.

Obviously you folded as well and put the 4bet on what turned out to be the correct range.

What range do we call with here?

“Obviously you folded as well and put the 4bet on what turned out to be the correct range. “

How do you know he put him on the correct range?

I said in my OP that I put him on KK+ and he did turn over KK.

Sorry, obviously and correct are unnecessarily aggressive terms and don’t add context. Should have read “As played, you folded and the 4bet player had the range you assumed (KK+)”

Geralt mentioned that both the 3bet player and 4bet player were “pretty taggy”. To deviate from the as-played hand, if the 4bet player folds instead of raising, do we then 4bet shove into CL (at table) open and tight early position 3bet?

I think I’m shoving here and my tournament is over (as played assuming 3bet calls). This may or may not be correct, but what ranges should we be shoving here?

I’ll take a shot at it.

I think what he’s getting at is that I’m not sure you can put him on KK or AA only here without more info.

He essentially has a min raise from chip leader and a very small 3-bet in front of him. Flatting is a bad idea given the stack sizes and number of players left to act. Add to this that he can’t really 4-bet without committing himself and this makes it a shove/fold decision for him.

I think you are correct to assume that it’s going to be a top notch hand when he makes this move and AA/KK are definitely in his range here, but I also wouldn’t be surprised to see him flip hands like QQ, JJ, AKs, and even AQs. He may have construed the bet sizing as weaker hands and thought he had enough fold equity to push them out.

If you had KK here, would you still put him on KK or AA? Would you call?

Assuming the 4bet folded I am usually going to 4bet shove here with AK. Based on my read of the player I would have him on AT+ 99+ and I would say I still have a decent amount of fold equity, given I am basically forcing him to flip me most of the time, and (assuming he cared or noticed) I had a rather tight image.

With the ISO 4bet shove from such an early position from quite a tight player I think I will only be calling with KK+ here to be honest.

That's right, DT. Suppose Villain's range were actually {TT+, AQs+, AKo}. KK is still in that range, so the fact that he had KK doesn't tell you whether or not that range or the range you gave or any other range that contains KK is correct. Just because he had KK doesn't mean he wouldn't have done the same thing with weaker hands had he had those. To be clear, this isn't an opinion on Hero's actual play, just on the claim that the results prove Hero's read.

Interesting way to look at it, and thanks for the comments guys.  It's true he could have played AQs+ or AKo here in a similar manner, and let's assume he does, given that (based on my limited amount of information) 3bet is very likely to call here, I am still most likely to fold given I don't like my chances playing AKo three ways when taking both of their ranges in to consideration.

Do you think I was right to fold here Foucault? What hands are you calling with here?
