6♦ 2♣ 6♠

Open AQo, 4-bet the BU 3-bet, use a small flop c-bet, then shove the river on the Td with SPR ~0.5.

Flop Analysis

On 6d 2c 6s rainbow, we’ve got A‑high with a backdoor diamond draw and no made hand. Our range is slightly ahead, so a small c‑bet is preferred, but 9.5BB into 46.9BB is still a reasonable sizing that pressures BU’s weaker hands and draws without bloating the pot.

Turn Analysis

The 4h on the turn doesn’t change our hand, but it does add some straight draws to the mix. With SPR ~1.2 and still just A‑high, solver prefers checking or using a small bet; the 23.5BB barrel is a bit larger than ideal, but it’s still a reasonable value/protection bet that leans on BU’s weaker 6x and random floats.

River Analysis

River Td brings a Ten‑high board and completes some straights, but we’re still on A‑high with a missed diamond draw. With SPR ~0.5 and a strong range advantage, this is a great spot to rip it in—jamming gets value from Tx and 6x while folding out a lot of random air that would otherwise check back.
