Flush
Playing 50NL 6max on ACR with HUDs. V is aggro with like 36% VPIP and has a 17% 3 bet over about 80 hands. So not perfectly accurate but he has got to be 3 betting wide to get this % over 80 hands. He has 3 bet me almost every time I have opened and it has folded to him; I'm playing about 24/19.
Hero opens to $1.43 which is standard. Surprise, V 3 bets about 4x to $5.75. This is the third open it has folded to him and he has 3 bet me and this time I'm calling with what really is a marginal call but given I have position and he is 3 betting wide we're going for it.
Hero flats. Villain leads flop for about 1/4 pot.
I think - he is 3 betting so wide, can he really have a Q here? Only a small % of the time given 2 queens are out there.
If he has the Q, I have no outs and am drawing pretty close to dead. If he doesnt have the Q I have the best hand and can kick it up to hopefully get a fold.
Let's find out! Hero raises to 4x. I know when I make this bet that it is pretty binary - if he calls I am screwed: he has a Q or an over pair and I am done with the hand. I do think that this could generate a decent amount of FE if he doesnt have a Q or an over pair.
Put this in the solver and the raise frequency in this spot is 2%. Slightly higher with suits that hit the board. I had a hard time figuring out what a 17% 3 bet range would look like (just way too wide) so I went with like 11%. So not exactly a GTO decision to raise here.
Villain calls. Yikes!! Looks like he may really have the Q. Lucky bastid.
Oh yeah! Miracle turn. Let's jam if he has the Q! Only fearing QQ now and theres only 1 combo out there.
V calls and does not improve
