ship 0 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 haha i'm an aggro monkey then o,Ou raising UTG here? i just think not 4 betting AK at least SOME of the time really narrows down your 4bet range and people are gonna start dumping almost anything whenever you do it cause lets face it, you'll never show up with ace king... and respectively probably not TT / JJ either... polarizing your 4betting range to something like QQ KK AA which is exploitable imo... hell i 4bet 78hh sometimes (not necessarily here) Link to post Share on other sites

We either ship or we dont. We have to be very, very deep to engage in 4 betting pre. Link to post Share on other sites

HollywoodAFD 0 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Nothing wrong with the fold.What would you have done if your Big Slick was suited though? Link to post Share on other sites

We never show it down, and we can't even accidentally expose it online, so who would ever know? :)I'm a strong advocate of doing different things in different spots with different hands to keep your range wide, but I think that can only apply if doing those things somehow leads us to showdown (bluff shoving, 3-4 betting weak holdings, etc), which this can't.

BellaireDrew 2 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 Villain is 20/5/1.75 over ~80 handsI fold here alot when Villain has these stats. Do you have 3 bet stats on your HUD? If not get them on there Link to post Share on other sites
