    In this thread, I make a set of non-standard calls. Opinons?

    Villain was running 38/30 over lots of hands with 15% 3bet. Initial raiser seemed like a straightforward ABC player, who was positionally aware. I had 3-bet initial raiser twice during the last orbit. Edit: If buyin seems relevant, keep in mind that this is a $11+R so it's more like 30-50$.

    I like it.. like its a dry board.. and he keeps firing huge.. plus the stat 15% 3-bet.. plus the spot.. looks like a good call...

    Hand seems like played entirely on the pre flop read that villain is highly capable of 3betting light. Calling him down is a possible option, but is A9s the kind of hand you would want to take this line? I mean what happens when you miss completely (majority of times)? And cant be too comfortable getting it in even after hitting an ace.
    Taking a stand and all is fine, but be willing to rebluff in case you miss. Should work out more profitable. GL at the tables!
