FTOPS Event 25 Day 1 Hands

We played for 10 hours, so obviously there were a lot of hands, but here are two that stick out in my head:

I think his range for calling the flop is pretty weak and usually drawing dead on the turn, so I choose not to bet. I think I just get too many folds from hands that will give me a bet (or in this case two) on the river, and there aren’t a lot of hands that are going to pay off two streets.

I don’t know if he ever folds anything he’s betting for value on the turn, but I have a ton of equity even against the nuts, and I think he’s often “bluffing” with the best hand- like AJ or something. I wasn’t shoving any turn, but I was shoving clubs. I probably flat call if I turn a straight.
