 This is really just a strategy post. I'm a TAGG player, I don't get out of line too much. I was just thinking about strategy against light three-bettors, and i realized that great hands to play back at them with is PP's, because usually a players 4-bet push calling range is AA-KK, AK, and there are a lot more combos of AK.

Anyways, not the greatest revelation in the world. But i've realized from looking at some posts from 2p2 forums that a lot of players don't have this move in their repitoire.

Here's an example:

villian is a very aggro, but decent player who three-bets kind of light, prob likes to squeeze.

Also someone mentioned when you fourbet light, Axs is normally a good one because ur only a 30% dog unless he has AA.
I'm not sure this is something anyone should get in the habit of though.

ahhhhhhhhhhh

this is soooo bad.

the range for calling that bet is more like AA-TT AK depending on the player. Also the overbet push is rarely as good as a smaller 4bet as you can fold to a push
I got more flava than fruitstripe gum
