I don't think you can slowroll in these spots , but I think Merge's network gives some showdowns a little pause at the end for dramatic effect. This has happened to me many times.

I would fold pre. A7o plays horribly against a tight 3bet range. Do you have any stats on villain? Flop is fine to peel given the insane pot odds. With no reads, I'd probably fold turn, unless you...

Thanks VarianceMonkey, much appreciated. I'll need to adjust my ranges against the tight players- in hindsight it does make sense, because I imagine his range is going to have Aces that dominate us...

I cant believe people talk about HEM2 in a negative way, i didn't purchase it for months because of the bad rep it had. I finally decided to because i wanted NCA. I was so pleased, it runs amazingly...

Villain seems nitty. Preflop,I'd probably 3b villain delinear like QQ+/AK and J7s/54s type stuff. I think QJo type hands will be dominated by villains tight range quite a bit, and put us in a lot of...

Depends on their range and tendencies. If they fold to 3b alot then 3x 3b them light all day. Some guys utg range is still super tight like 7% but they still minraise... great, now you can setmine and...

suited aces and esp. suited connectors are pretty poor hands to flat vs a 7% range imo, even if they minraise (unless your are deeper)if they're tight you don't even have to (or can) go out of your way...

Easy 3 streets of value, imo. You get called by all Ax that villain gets here with. Also, BVB, people don't like to fold top-pair, even to 3brls. I think the worst value hand I would 3brl is AQ.

Excellent post Itsatrap. What do you think about 3betting a bit larger since we are OOP. Perhaps just potting it to $1.00 or $1.10.

The K on turn should not help villain's range at all. I would min-raise turn to get value from villain's draws and worse pairs and fold if villain re-raises. As played, river is probably a fold. I'd...

Assuming you have a decent sample size on villain, he seems pretty straightforward postflop based on his stats. I remove KK from his range because I expect a preflop 3bet. I remove K9s, 99 and 66 from...

Call ATW and make him show you Seven-Deuce. J/k Jay. I'd call flop since we have position and get more info from betsizing, timing tells, w/e OTT. Turn is a fold. We don't beat any value hands, and...

Thank you for your replies. FaceMyAlterEgo, raising the flop is an interesting idea. I was actually considering that in-game as well. I have the A, though. Does that change your flop decision at all?

Thx. U r definitely right on with the AA hand where I got my read. I should have jammed river for value. I did figure there was future value in figuring out what villain was 3betting my MP with, though.
