25NL Zone: Epic Ignition Spew (1 Viewer)

Would love to hear this guy's thought process.

I think this is a pretty light call OOP with the BB behind. QTo is not in my SB flatting range.

Hero leads for about 1/2 pot and V fires with ... 8% equity.
I guess this must work some % of the time when Hero misses the flop.
Could be the FDFD, could be a set (33 or 77) but we have AA and we're calling.

Turn gives V some equity in middle pair so he fires again. Hero calls.

River pairs the board and V jams. Hero sigh calls to see the good news. Unreal.
And here I am trying my hardest to play tighter and fold to large turn & river bets. This line just didnt make any sense.

Scoop!

Not Villain, but I think TQ is in my small blind flatting range because a lot of buttons can raise lightly.

I don't think check raising on this flop is good, and is probably pure spew, there's so many better combos to check raise like flush draws, or even gutshots, or best, gutshots with a flush draw that have little showdown value. I'm not seeing why you would check raise here where Hero expects Villain to be doing so with many draws, and is therefore more incentivized to stay in the pot.

When we pick up the 10 I have a hand I'm not confident enough in going for value for, at that point I'm check calling for pot control.
