babylondonks 5 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 good talkedit: just so I contribute something. You feel you're better than those guys who play way too many hands, so your strategy to counter this is to play more hands. Link to post Share on other sites

babylondonks 5 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Solid strat bro, good to see you're really trying to critically think about the game and improve Link to post Share on other sites
Mercury69 3 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Fold PF. If you insist on playing this hand, re-raise. A limp, a raise and a call will only induce the blinds to jump in the pool also and then where are you? Up against 5 players, right? Sure, you got lucky with that flop, but this is usually a losing proposition and that's what it ended up being...when your opponent hit his flush... Link to post Share on other sites
cdipierr 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I'm not as in the "fold preflop" camp as everyone else, but if you're going to play ATs in position early in a SnG, you're looking to play the nuts, not marginal river situations. As it happens, you flop top two, raise the flop and get called. From there, once the Q comes off, you're basically trying to get to a cheap showdown. Check the turn behind, and fold to any reasonable bet, especially once the heart comes off. You'll sometime beat something like AK here, but not very often. Link to post Share on other sites
MasaKrisT 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I'd play this hand just like guy wrote in last post:) Link to post Share on other sites

rrumsey 0 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 You advocate calling an UTG raise with KJ, but you'll fold ATss?I believe ( i will go check) but position was much different given far less people behind left to act. yah it was a 6 max cash game huge difference . i mean valid point i didnt say i knew everything in poker (granted i did have a few reads on my villain) but in a tounry when we are going to price in a f*ck fest of callers we are stuck in a spot where fold equity is going to go way down, barring us flopping a flush or st8 with no flush, we are going to get out drawn a lot by villains chasing. big multiway pots tend to have little FE, and on this kind of flop we have the best hand like literally all the time at this point, but it is almost impossible for us to get LP players to fold anything, and we will lose chips we need. I would rather 3 bet this then call. BTW, i know i havent been playing/ posting very well at all in the past few weeks ( and some may say forever, which is probably true) but i hope you are being slightly playful about this. the spots are very different, at least imo. I mean seriously i just looked it up, i was the button, so my postflop equity should be a lot higher being i have position. Link to post Share on other sites
babylondonks 5 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I think calling ATs here is >>>>>>>>>>>> 3betting. Would you 3bet 78s here? Link to post Share on other sites
TrueAce13 18 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I don't think flatting here is horrible if your confident in your post flop game. That being said, raise more on the flop and bet bigger turn. Fold river as played Link to post Share on other sites
Tehtoe 3 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 3betting is horrible (some might even go so far as calling it atrocious). Flatting is meh, probably bad. Folding preflop is good! As played, seems like a pretty clear fold. Link to post Share on other sites
