RE: An Introduction to Game Theory in Poker
We probably want to 4bet AA, KK, and AKs because they are still ahead of our opponent’s 3betting range, and we want to call with our middle pairs, big suited cards, and AKo/AQo, and then we can 4bet bluff a few hands that are slightly too weak to call like ATs and AJo.
I'd rather throw in the A2s-A5s than the ATs or AJo.
But that's really just nitpicking. Great post over all! This is what modern poker strat looks like.
Yup I agree. Whatever the strongest hands with blocking capability that we are folding should be 4bet. AJo and ATs are a call in this situation vs most buttons, so we can go ahead and 4bet the A2s-A5s like you suggested. I originally wrote the post dealing with UTG vs button and decided to change it to hijack due to buttons possibly wanting to flat hands as strong as QQ vs UTG opens and mentally didn't adjust the 3bet calling range to wide enough.
