Thanks, I see some similarities here but Hero in the video is not nearly as close to the top of his range as the hand in this post.  In the video V could have QQ+, AJs+, at least since he showed up with A9o.  So Hero is bluff catching fairly light against what sounds like a strong LAG.  When V shows up with A9o here his 4B pre seems like a  super value slam dunk and I agree with x, x/f given the run out and remaining stack depth.  In this hand it's closer to set over set to me as we only expect 4 combos to have us beat so I'm more willing to go broke against this type of player even though it may not be the most +EV play.  Even if we give our V AJs that only adds 2 combos to worry about.  But again, I'm not justifying any of this with theory.  I just think we have a much easier call and am trying to wrap my head around letting V off the hook with KK-QQ, AQs, etc where they could make a mistake and call at some frequency to balance out the times where we stack off against AA, JJ, and AJs.

Also, it's debatable whether our 5B is a bluff against this guy.  If we give him JJ+, AQ+, AJs+ we are still ahead by 6%.  If we just give him QQ+, AK then it's a bluff but I think he's continuing wider than this.  How much wider is a good question, especially with no HUD.  At the time I thought V was wide enough to 5B for value and protection / equity denial since we are OOP.  I don't mind showing down against the short stack with AK.
