Zach6668 513 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 C/o is passive preflop and aggressive postflop. Button is a station.Then why not raise and let him 3-bet. Either on the flop or the turn.We are trapping the button here a ton of the time.Given your reads, you played this hand very poorly, IMO. Link to post Share on other sites
econ_tim 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 this is pretty bad. you slowplay the whole way and then don't put in a reraise on the end. why not bet/3-bet the flop and go from there? Link to post Share on other sites
MrNiceGuy 0 Posted August 16, 2006 Share Posted August 16, 2006 why not bet/3-bet the flop and go from there?Why would you bet the flop? Even if CO doesn't have an A and doesn't bet, button might have an A. I'm check-raising the flop if CO bets to trap button, and if CO 3-bets then I'll go for another check-raise on the turn.OP, I don't like your line unless CO is a maniac postflop. Otherwise, you could potentially miss a lot of bets if CO doesn't have an A (and if CO has an A, he's not going to fold, and may 3-bet if you put in a raise somewhere). Also, as played, I think you should 3-bet the river; if CO is passive preflop, then it's very unlikely that he has you beat (88 or perhaps A8 would be your only concerns).I can't decide about preflop- generally open-limping is inadvisable shorthanded, and I'd probably usually fold this hand, but given your description of the opponents, the limp may make sense here, as long as you think you'll usually end up in a 4- or 5-handed unraised pot, because you'll be in good relative position compared to the aggressive player and the calling station if you are lucky enought to flop the set.

Willenation 0 Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Fold preflop.Otherwise, you need to put in an extra bet on the turn or the river. I prefer the turn, since it gives villian a chance to 3-bet you with strong aces, and he's almost never getting away from weak ones. Link to post Share on other sites
Pancake407 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 I raise preflop, the entire hand plays differently from there. Link to post Share on other sites
GoingBusto 0 Posted August 21, 2006 Share Posted August 21, 2006 Without question you should c/r either the flop or the turn. My preference would be to wait for the turn, but I tend to outthink myself and they end up not betting twice. All three options are close PF, I tend to fold this tho unless the table is passive.GB Link to post Share on other sites
