Good luck!

sick fade with the AA, nh though.

i just reviewed the AA hand and if any pros can give me a insight of the line he was taking. I mean while look at the 3 bet size to me that screamed strength atleast AK you were wanting a shove but  maybe I don’t see something I guess you could be like 10 10 or JJ and he was willing to flip for a huge tourney…. idk i dont play these stakes

thanks for the sweat, guys.

i mean the AQ hand is definitely a little weird, and i can see what he’s thinking. it’s such a prefect spot for him to 3bet, and for me to 4bet really small, so when he has near the top of his range it’s hard to fold.

and i know him and theres a little history so he might be a little optimistic of my range. but at the end of the day shoving is bad cause it’s such a giant risk and an ICM disaster. the 4b is so small that he can just flat i think before shoving.

Not a bad payday :)..
