Villain is a very good and solid high stakes HU reg who I'm playing for fun. He is running 50/40/3.1. My stats are 60/50/3.8.

BB ($51.25)
Hero ($98.25)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 7http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif, 9http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif.
Hero raises to $2, BB raises to $7, Hero calls $5.

Flop: ($14) 7http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif, 2http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif, Jhttp://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...es/diamond.gif (2 players)
BB checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($14) 2http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...miles/club.gif (2 players)

Quite like this. His line does look a little like 88,99,1010 - the only hands this shove has any point against, but to be honest I think we're ahead like 70% of the time here he most likely has 44 or something.

Still i can't see him showing up with an overpair, set or flush so fuck it if we're sure he wont make an amazing call with a mid pair this is kinda infallable.

I'm fully expecting him to call with any pair here including 44. I bet this for value (with bluff timings), and to make it harder for him to make thin calls, and to throw him off his A-game if he calls with ace high.
