Re: Folding QQ
I think this is an easy push. So, you know he could call your pf raise with any 2 cards. You've seen him reraise multiple times with an open-ended straight draw. There is no way you can put him on a premium holding after the flop. You're only far behind 22, 33, 55, A4. He could just as easily have a middle pocket pair, AX (gutshot straight draw) 5X, 4X, any 2 spades. You're either way ahead or at worst a slight underdog to any of these hands.
The only alternative to a push is a call, followed by pushing on the turn to a blank. Problem is, he could have such a wide range of hands that there aren't that many blanks, and even if it's not a blank, you can't fold. The pot will be over $1000 if you call. Would you fold to a $90 bet then if the turn is a spade? What about a 4? An A or K? No, no, no. Crying calls in every case. You're either ahead or fairly close, you might as well make him put in his money before he knows he's missed his draws. |

Playing a $2-$5 PL game that is loose as a I'm UTG with 2 black Queens and raise to $35 (max bring in is $30 UTG) [/ QUOTE ] why is the max raise 35 in a pot limit game? even if you round up the SB a full pot raise is 20 straight. EDIT: sorry, I saw you explained this later. ignore this post. weird rule, though. --turnipmonster |
