    A little more info could be helpful here. What type of fish is the fish in the hand? Does he call post with A high, does he fold everything but the nuts, etc? Has the table been actively targeting the fish meaning there is a very limited amount of time to take his money? Does villain know any/all of this? Is villain willing/able to do anything with this info?

    This should help us determine if villain in the hand is likely to have adjusted, and how he may have adjusted to the inclusion of the fish in the hand.

    In a vacuum, this looks an awful lot like a Sklansky situation where you have flopped a monster with a redraw to a better hand, and a small chance that your opp can make a strong hand when you do improve, and then you overbet shove the nuts on the river.

    Initially I thought:

    Pre iso: 77+, AJs+, AQo+, KQs

    Flop c/c: 77+, AhQh, AdKd, AhQx, AhKx

    Turn c/c: 88, 99, TT, QQ+, AhQh, AhQx, AhKx

    River donk shove: 88, TT, QQ+, AhQH


    But the line is weird for any of those hands. The only way I can make sense of it is with a much wider open pre flop. I'm not adding any bluffd as he is a 14/12 with low cb and af. I don't think he never bluffs, I.just don't think he raises pre, calls, calls and then bluff shoves. So in order to make sense I'm figuring AhTh, Th9h QhTh and maybe Ah9h might need to be in there. I dunno. I suck at this.
    I'm the king of bongo, baby I'm the king of bongo bong.
