So the answer is to fold the rubbish that is 74o pre. ;D

i guess, my read was wrong on him. He wasn"t as tight as I thought he"d be. i.e his early tightness didnt translate to mid game tightness. Me not picking this up essentially meant my shove was wrong

Not sure I understand.  Because you didn"t win this particular hand you"ve decided your play was wrong.  His call with Q8 is bad, that doesn"t make your play bad, does it?

it does boshi if u know villain calls with the top 33% of his range  :)  work it out , its -ev , factor in also that maybe villain is clueless then 74o doesnt look very rosy  :)

He doesn"t get the top 33% of his range very often though, only about 33% of the time in fact. And he"s folding the times he doesn"t have it. Also, 74o has ~31% equity vs the top 33% of hands. Work it out. It"s +EV.
