Pocket A\'s - Easy Lay Down
Online .05/.10
I am in SB with AhAs. 3 limpers to me. I raise. BB calls as do the limpers. Flop: 6h5c4h I bet. BB raises. UTG re-raises and one LP caps it. I folded the A's. Hopefully correctly. This was my thought at the time. Someone has 2 pair or a set. One drawing to a flush and one had a straight. After the session ended I was thinking, what about drawing for the back door flush, boat or quads. I believe I would have been in trouble as there are only about 5 hearts that I could safely draw to. I would need runner runner A's for quads (at about 1000-1). If I catch an A on the Turn then pair the board for the boat, it could be to a card that completes quads or a straight flush for an opponent. I don't think I have ever folded A's on the flop before. Am I correct this time? |

Re: Pocket A\'s - Easy Lay Down
Unless you are at a table full of maniacs, I think this is a good laydown. Most players don't like to raise and reraise on a scarry board like that without a good peice of it.

Re: Pocket A\'s - Easy Lay Down
Actually, they DO like to raise with nothing but draws with boards like that. The last player very likely has a draw (he'd slow play, hehehe, if he had a set or straight). But the chances that all 3 of them have draws is pretty slim...
The only way Hero is in the hunt is if one has 2-pair and the other two draws. Even so, I'd guesstimate that its pretty close so folding costs only pennies, if that. Hero should certainly fold if he's up against a set or straight. - Louie |
