Sat down a few hands ago and table seems passive. I bet the flop to get some info, the raiser has 100 vpip for 7 hands so figured he might be a little loose.Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cxPreflop: Hero is UTG with [6c], [Ac].

I wouldn't bet the flop. I'd rather let button bet and see if anyone checkraises or anything. If it folds to me, I'd call and my action on turn would depend on card.As you played it, everything else looks fine.

I would rather c/c the flop, and decide what to do on the turn. But since you decided to bet the flop for info, you should use the info he gives you and fold the turn.

fold preflop.

Yeah, good point. Definitely not a limping hand UTG.

of all my SLAP-iness, Axs in EP appear to be my leak-iest hands. Not by much, and likely to early to know the full story.At .5/1 its a limp.2/4 they raise too often behind you and you a 3 waay with it

Lol... I figured you may reply to this...I agree, .5/1 is a lot closer... i didn't even look at what level this was. I think I would get killed at .5/1 now, I don't play nearly SLAPpy or SLAA enough to crush it like I used to...

I already had stats on some people at the table and it seemed passive and slightly loose for the few hands I sat down, so I decided to limp. I don't really see anything wrong with Axs in early position at a loose/passive table.

As long as you can consistently expect at the very least 4 others in the hand, I think.

since when do you need atleast 4 others in the pot to make Axs profitable?

[Actuary 3]

I open in MP/LP to play HU against random hands in pos.I limp in loose passive games in EP because I want multi-way and more players means better inplied odds for the nut flush.Obviously, we do have some TP strenghth, however, if it's often raised preflop, our equity is not so good against raising hands and hands calling raises. I would like many cold callers in this case.

Isn't Axs supposed to be treated like a speculative hand, as in small PP's and suited connectors?

Axs is harder to play (read: less profitable) than 78s or 55 for most people

Sure, but also depends on postflop play. Mine surely isnt the strongest, but I think good enough that I can play it and turn a profit in this case.

uh... let me c.m.a. here... at least it sounds right..no evidence

[Guest Zach6668]

Ok, so I looked throught the DB, and I'm an enourmous loser with suited connectors T9s and down... suprising...Pocket pairs I'm a winner with, except 22, 55, and 77 for some reason, but 88 is huge for me.And AXs, I'm pretty even.. up with one hand, down with the other. So I don't know anymore... lolI really don't mind the play preflop though, fwiw, I just wanted to see some discussion on it.

preflop is questionable, from there on its fine.On a side note, why does 90% of the posters here think that passive bs poker is the way to go? c/c the flop? wtf. where does that leaves you when a non ace or 6 turn card comes, which will happen 90% of the time.People, show some goddam aggression. KingAustin played the flop correctly.

so, do you think he should fold the turn?
