    Hi Andrew,
    @17mn with AKs, always struggle with these kind of spots where you face aggression with draws.
    when you decide to call a large bet on the turn (actually you did put 30% of your stack into the pot), you are commited to the pot right? and if the river don’t hit your flush or straight, you fold right? is it an +EV you took? if river is a K or an A I guess you can’t fold?
    let’s say turn is a spade but not a queen, you still call on the turn? with 9 outs and 29% pot odds that would be a bad call right? and even with this queen of spade on the turn, you’ve got 14 outs whichh will be a breakeven call?
    am I right with hypothesis?
    would be great if you can make something on SPR and stack off range or something on stack size dynamic and utility

    I don’t want to repeat myself too much because I did discuss this hand at great length in the video. One thing you aren’t considering here is that my hand may be good unimproved – that is, blanks may be outs for me. Of course that may be an argument for shoving, as I won’t necessarily get to showdown on those blanks. You also aren’t considering implied odds, as we saw here I may win additional chips when I hit and/or pick off bluffs.

    All of that said, I do think two things are true:

    1. I probably should have just jammed the turn.
    2. This is a pretty weird spot, I wouldn’t advise trying to use it as an example for blanket rules about “never put X% of your stack in the pot and then fold” or “always stack off such-and-such SPR and hand strength”. Then again I’m not a fan of such rules in the first place.

    Excellent, I really enjoy this guy’s stuff, he’s articulate and insightful. The screen was a little cluttered with HUDs though, can they be resized ?
