View Full Version : Why do I even bother with AT?

I feel like this hand only gets me in trouble 10 handed. Somebody has AJ/AQ/AK often enough when I have AT, that unless I'm playing ATs for flush value it seems like complete waste; I find myself folding it to LAGs, too, that might have A7 or something but I can't figure out where I am against them to make that call for half or more of my stack.

So this makes me wonder; should I even play AT as anything other than Axs for flush value?

Nope, at on a full table. ATo and AJo are easy hands to muck.

So I play the following hands on a full table with low blinds:

Limp with any PP, Axs, call raises that are small enough for set/flush value.

Raise with AK/AQ/AA/KK/QQ from anywhere, JJ/TT/maybe 99/KQ from LP, fold last three and AQ to a reraise? Man I thought I was tight before, but now I'm cutting out AJo/ATo/KJo from LP, too, when a tight table image is worth more than blinds.

I muck AQo in EP in level 1-3 often, but not always. I feel more comfortable limping in with TJs then I do AQo.
