View Full Version : Another AK hand - Too Aggressive?


12-04-2005, 12:48 AM
After responding to several AK posts this week, I finally had one of my own. (Sorry that Bison HC doesn't like Full Tilt) - Critique on all streets is greatly appreciated as this is one of the most difficult hands for me to play at 2/4 or 3/6.

First orbit, so no reads, but I usually give 2/4 FT players the benefit of the doubt until proven LAG . . .

I don't like the flop CR. Most semi-decent players will be expecting it after you cap PF and check the blank flop.

Also, weaker overcards usually fold the turn UI losing you value (although a pocket pair is more likely given that he bet into you after your flop check, so I assume he's willing to calldown after a CR), and pocket pairs aren't folding. I would bet out, and call down against a flop raise.

Given the PF three-bet, I don't think you're folding a better hand ever.
