Flop Analysis
On this dry Ace-high texture, we hold a massive range advantage as the 4-bettor. Betting small allows us to realize our equity and force folds from Villain's mid-pairs and undercards. **Ranges:** We have all the AA, AK, and AQs in our range, whereas the BB's flatting range to a 4-bet is often condensed to JJ-88 and some AQs/AKo. This disparity allows us to bet at a very high frequency. **Blockers:** Holding the Kd is significant as it blocks some of Villain's backdoor diamond draws and potential K-high floats, though on this specific rainbow board, its primary value is blocking KK. **Math:** In a 4-bet pot with an SPR of 1.36, a small 25-30% pot bet is highly effective. It sets up a geometric shove on many turns while putting maximum pressure on Villain's non-Ace holdings. --- > **Takeaway:** In 4-bet pots on Ace-high boards, use small sizing to leverage your range advantage and force folds from capped ranges.
