I know I played this horribly. It was heads up on the flop and I've always heard you have to play TT to showdown when it's HU. Should I of folded on the river or before? Villian is a major calling sation. A6o to SD with ace high.

As I learnt today SOP for this after the flop is check-call, check-call.

Now let's just hope I applied my newfound wisdom correctly.

I probably wouldn't 3-bet preflop HU out of position against a semi-EP raise.

I don't see any purpose in a river bet, and I definitely don't call a river raise.

That's what I thought too. But I've heard if you raised PF then you bet the flop no matter what. Plus this is HU, that changes things a lot. I don't think this is a check call.

What about reraising a MP/LP raise? SSH says you can reraise w/ TT. I understand your caution against EP though.

If I smooth call the PF raise is the turn bet still good?

No, that's when you flop top pair and are against an aggressor. Unless you're talking about a different thread.

I 3-bet this pf and lead the flop, I call the flop raise, and I think I bet that second king intending to fold to a raise.

This isn't entirely true, but it's true the vast majority of the time.

Would you mind listing an exception?

BottlesOf · #9 01-01-2005, 07:56 PM

Basically if you're out of position against a lot of players and your hand is hopeless. Like you raise KQo early get 4 or 5 cold callers and the flop comes A high with a flush draw of which you have no part.

Or a multiwaytypehand-value raise on the button and a flop that misses you.
