Poker Player Analyzes Calling a 4-Bet with Pocket Tens Using a Solver

A poker player, known as Фил, discusses a hand from his series 'Фил против солвера' where he calls a 4-bet with pocket tens. The player is in the middle position at a 6-max NL table and calls a 4-bet with pocket tens. The player considers folding preflop due to tight ranges and the fact that they are not in late position.

The flop and turn are checked through, and the big blind bets almost the full bank on the river. The solver suggests that calling with pocket tens is close to folding but not a serious mistake. The player analyzes the big blind's 4-bet range, which includes QQ+, AKo, AQs, KQs, and some weaker hands.

The solver recommends checking after the big blind checks on the flop and turn. The player considers the possibility of the big blind bluffing with certain hands on the river. The player concludes that the call is not profitable because the big blind is unlikely to bluff with hands weaker than a set of tens.
