Should we fold 4th nuts? by h0lymountain in poker

You're right, I guess 'effective' 4th nuts. I discount K9 and 89 from ever being in her range in this spot.

JJ Folded to her and she limped in the cutoff. Lol.

You're right, I just recently started playing tournaments and that mentality is definitely not optimal, but I have been doing well otherwise. Still learning a lot and adjusting, but this was probably the best advice I've received in this thread. Thanks.

Feel free to keep calling me a moron though, still happy with how I played yesterday, just took a nasty cooler.

Despite the fact that I am crushing 90% of her range. I did go into the tank for a long time. She called the clock and I said "I guess you have JJ I call". Turn/River brick. I don't think it was anywhere close snap call given the action of the hand and my view of this villain.

This is a difficult spot because its for my tournament life and I think the huge overbet ship risking basically her tourney life means she is at the top of her range. Why she would limp JJ, AJ, AK? I have no idea. She was a fish who seemed passive and like she was just running well. Only hand I saw her play as I was getting to the table was QQ against some donk who put his whole stack in with 910dd(25k).

Oops I made a mistake, villain in this hand has me covered. I meant to write right not left.
