when you are playing Hyper Turbo heads up on 10-20 level which play is better with rendom oponent if he made standart rais and we have A2-A4 hand . 3bet push , standart 3 bet or call?
I usually mix it up depending on game dynamic, you get alot of fold equity with 3bet shoving but very easy to be outkicked. On the otherhand it doesnt play to well after the flop.
But you will have decent equity most of the time i assume
you need to base your decision off the tendencies of the average unkown opponent in your player pool.
where i play the average villain limps a tonne, raises less and will make spewy calls after raising.
id recommend using ICMIZER to model your opponents rough ranges.
here i used a 42% raising range, and a 17% calling range.
you can see it is an error to jam small aces versus this opponent. note also the added value of suitedness between Ax's.
use ICIMIZER to model your average opponent.
---------------------------
these aces do become proiftable jams against people who open very wide, the wider they open the more fold equity we have [card removal plays a part here].
against some regs, all aces are +ev jams.
-------------------------
do not make a non allin 3bet with A2. any hand that flats has great equity against you and it gets to play in position. also the ace is a MASSIVE part of our percieved range, and villains can play pretty perfectly against us as our percieved range and actual range are one and the same. if we get action on ace high flops we are likely getting owned
------------------------
flat against unkowns, when stacks are shallower consider jamming.,
against a very wide opening range, consider jamming.
it's worth noting that when we jam A2o v a wide opener we make our money off our fold equity.
our all-in equity with A2 is VERY marginal and often terrible against even a maniacal calling range.
Against a wide opening range it is often profitable to jam 90% of hands, obviously if we are jamming THAT wide then we are easy pickings ourselves, and we are burning equity with hands that play well post flop like QJs. Even so Ax is perfect hand to place in a range in an aggressive 3bet jamming strategy. one big reason is that our ace blocks a TONNE of villains raise / calling range, and it does well against KQ, QJs, KJs type hands that wide openers will have to include in their raise / calling range when we take this approach.

non allin 3bets are not fun with weak aces
