    Default Opinion about a play

    The objective of this play is meant to make the other fold. I noticed it works a lot of times 4/5 but I think it's a border line thing if it'S a good or bad play. Want opinions.

    blinds 50-100

    You get dealt AhKh mid pos and make a raise 3 X BB. Button calls. 1 opponent. It can be also be done in HU matches.

    pot = 375

    Flop comes 9h3s7c. You make a CBET of 250 to get raised to 500 and you call. Is it ok to call here first off ? Is the Cbet enuff ? Let's say you do call.

    turn is 10h so the board goes 9h-3s-7c-10h

    YOU SHOVE IT ALL IN, having the other coverted or he would be left with little chips like you have 1600 him 1400 or vice versa.. If you get called, you still have plenty of outs.

    What do you think ? This play is meant to make the other fold in the first place but you have some outs if gettting called.

    Pot is large before the all in if you think about it...

    I just want to have opinions here.

    The flop lead is fine, the call isn't great because the only outs that we MAY have are 3 Kings and 3 Aces plus a backdoor flush draw. If we had straight outs as well it wouldn't be so bad but it would depend on odds and I'd need a converted hand to be bothered lol.

    Turn play is fairly standard I think. We have fold equity as you mentioned (the long winded way) and he could easily be raising the flop with hands that lay down here, hands that were raising the flop for info. Well he got his info on the turn so unless he has a set/2 pair/big over pair I see him folding.

    The check-call/lead-turn looks super strong. I'd shove any overcard, heart, maybe any 7.
