I would probably fold preflop. I might call, but I am definitely not 3-betting.

It is almost never correct (in fact the only correct time to fold A9s to a raise pf is when you know the person is raising with AA 100% of the time and it is just heads up between you and the raiser) to fold A9s in the BB for 1 more bet.

In fact, you should never fold Axs in the bb for 1 more bet.

I missed that Hero was in the Big Blind. I would definitely call in that case. I'm still not 3-betting.

Very crappy advice. So much is read dependent and limper dependent.

[/ QUOTE ]

Actually, if you never folded Axs in the sb for 1 more bet, you wouldn't be making that much a mistake, even if you called with A6-8s all the time. You're putting in 2SB for a 7SB pot and the only hand where calling the raise is incorrect would be AA (And even this wouldn't be a mistake if you get 3-4 callers).

7SB pot? HU is 3.5:1 pot. very read dependent whether to call or fold (or 3 bet, for that matter).

[/ QUOTE ]

No. Obviously it's read dependent to 3 bet, but whether to call or not is not. For the 4th time, you're only making a mistake by calling the raise is if the raiser has AA and it is heads-up.

I wouldn't 3bet preflop. I would slow down on the river.

What gritty determination by MP1. Buddy list him.

Why?

Re: huge pot for micro - how\'d I play?
 

Preflop, turn, and river suck.

You might want to consider putting your opponents on a range of hands before hitting the bet/raise/reraise button.

They tend to skew the responses.

You didn't know what you're opponents had while you were playing you're hand, why should we know what they had while we analyze it?

MP1 is a badass poker player.

I would just call preflop. I would probably just call the river too.

So, stay in the whole way, just tighten up so I'm not leaking so much?

Thank you guys for your advice. Some of it is a little over my head right now, but I'll catch on soon enough... Thanks again [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

1. This is the most eff'd-up preflop action I've seen in a looooong time.

2. I believe MP1 has some form of mild retardation working (and I haven't even looked at the results).

3. Any reads on SB? I'd be worried playing against a preflop cold-call-capper (weird!) who doesn't seem concerned about a 3-flush flop, but against an unknown...hmmmmmm.

Oh, wait, I see now! You LOST! The board is paired so SB had, what? 55? No, it was 44, wasn't it, for the rivered boat! This is a bad-beat post!

Dude, you flopped the nut flush and got as much money into the pot as you could. Where's the question, here?
