Pair
Had a fun hand the other day. Not super high level strat, pretty much played itself. Thought it would be fun to have people guess what V's had in this one.
Couple hours into my home game and the night is really ramping up. Chips are starting to fly. One of my good buddies, V1, brought a friend tonight, V2.
V1 I've referenced in other hands as "hyper-lag". He's def the guy at our game I hate playing against. Our other good players are pretty straight forward TAG and while tough, are far more predictable. V1's BTN and CO range are wide as the Grand Canyon. He's good at punishing in position and exploiting his cultivated maniac image into tons of value with the goodies.
V2 hasn't played at our game until tonight. He seems to be playing well under his normal stakes/gambol threshold and is splashing it up a ton, only showing aggression and thinking when gunning for V1. V1 and V2 have been at each other all night while the rest of us sit back.
V1 has run his stack up to the big stack and covers, obv. V2 was up huge but quickly is dumping it all back to V1 and others. Eff stacks 150 BB V1 and V2 cover.
V2 opens 20BB EP
V1 calls BTN

.
I pop it up to 80 (!!) BB. This felt like the most I could raise and get V2 to continue his entire range. He wasn't folding anything short of garbage here. And V1 wasn't folding, both due to pot odds, position, and a chance to gun at BOTH V2 and H, who he knows is only doing this with premiums in this spot. He loves trying to bust my monsters.
V2 and V1 call.
Flop (~245 BB)

I insta-shove my remaining 70 BB.
V2 hems and haws and counts out 70 BB, leaving him another 10 BB or so. Puts it all in.
V1 makes the call.
So, what did V1 and V2 have?
