Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6723061, member: 397965"] I ran your hand in GTO Wizard just to see, how close or far my own analysis would be to the GTO line. Preflop I would also call here, but interestingly GTO Wizard disagree and simply fold AJo 100% of the time. The most likely reason for that is, that HJ is supposed to be on a pretty tight range, and combined with the tight UTG range and the fact, there is no ante, there is simply to much domination and reverse implied odds in defending a hand like AJo. Instead the program defend all the suited aces, all the pairs and many suited connectors. However in a 10NL game it is likely, that HJ is cold calling to wide, and then it is a reasonable adjustment to defend wider. GTO Wizard also work with a 2,5BB open raise, and with 2,2BB you are getting a better price. So all in all I still think, this is ok, but its more marginal, that I actually thought, so folding would not be crazy. Flop Here I think, you can go both ways and either check-call or check-raise. The problem with check-raising is, its difficult to balance with bluffs, because the best draws are some gutshots. Its also an open question, if your hand is actually good enough to play for all the money. The issue is not, that you are likely to be beat, but he dont have many worse two pair, so to stack off you are depending on him to call down with hands like AK or AQ. Which.. yeah ok... if he is fishy then probably. But if he is one of those nitty regulars then probably not. Especially when your checkraise is pretty much representing only sets and two pair. So against those more nitty regulars I actually prefer to just check-call and have a really strong hand to call down with. To be able to analyse postflop in GTO Wizard I had to make HJ fold, since otherwise AJ is not even in your range. With that deviation the program does a mix of calling and check-raising with AJ. Turn As played I would barrel again, and GTO Wizard agree. River As you say, this is a bad card, because now AQ got there. So unless he is very fishy, I would also check here and then probably cry call it off. GTO Wizard agree but also does a very small block bet some percentage of the time. It should be noted though, that because I made HJ fold, the pot is smaller at this point than in your actual hand. And yeah... facing that small bet there is no way, you can fold, and of course GTO Wizard also has AJ as a 100% call. Kind of weird, that he did not go for it all, and GTO Wizard definitely disagree with this. In his spot it jam AQ almost 100% of the time and never use a sizing as small as this. [/QUOTE]
