Neil's 50NL Replayer (2)

Great Video, I like how you explain every part with lots of detail with thoughts on villain's range as well!

ATs is a flat for me here so A9s is a great candidate for a squeeze because it is the top of my folding range. Given the weaker player in the pot i think a flat needs to be given some consideration as well because weaker players often allow you to draw cheaply, overplay 2nd best hands, and not put you in tough spots/take away the pot on later streets. When calling it a tight fold I was much more talking about not squeezing, than not flatting. I was thinking squeeze or fold at the time of the session, but reviewing all the variables after the fact it seemed that a call wouldn't be awfully loose, and given the same spot with slightly different variables, like another weaker passive player in the bb, or the original weaker opponent instead being a particularly bad player, it would become a call for me. Basically more than anything I'm encouraging you to think through all of your options when making a decision, and particularly looking for excuses to loosen up, even oop, when there is a weaker player in the pot. That said, in this hand you hit on all of the points of the cons list being a stronger argument for not flatting in that particular spot than my pros list is for calling, even with a weaker opponent in the pot, which is why i did fold.
