Re: Check/fold AKs in the BB

Re: Check/fold AKs in the BB
The amount of times you will hit and win will offset that one extra bet you are putting in.
Good point. Thank you.

Re: Check/fold AKs in the BB
For this hand your opponents profited from you. I hope that you do not think you played this perfectly.
Mike, I respect your opinion a lot. I understand the point that in general I should raise...

Re: Check/fold AKs in the BB
Pop quiz: when you raise AA preflop, do you want people to call or fold?
If there are 6 people ahead of me? Fold.

Re: Check/fold AKs in the BB
Dude. Raise preflop. There is nothing perfect about checking in that spot.... The phrase 'crime against humanity' comes to mind.
Please explain why betting into 6 people that will call is...

Re: More trouble w/AKs
I don't like the raise on the flop.
You still have 4 players to act after you, AND the player that just said he's got a hand.
I can't see you getting everyone to fold here, and you're often...

Re: Me, aggressive? You gotta be kidding
I wouldn't get in the habit of doing this sort of thing at a table though as people may catch on and it could wind up costing you.
I agree. Once or twice in a session should be enough. The extra...

Re: Hand for review
Unless your goal is to lose, this IS a bad play.
I disagree. It is a MARGINAL play at best, but you don't consider the times where your pocket pair will make the straight or when you can...

Re: Party 2/4 hand
Should I have raised here?
I don't think so either. I had no idea who was ahead at that point. And was slightly surprised when you took it down.

Re: Me, aggressive? You gotta be kidding
You raise a limper here so your chance of "stealing" without a flop are next to nil.
Not necessarily. At a tight table, you often can win the pot on the flop too. You're preflop aggression...

Re: Hand for review
Preflop- Although most may not like it, I don't think it's all that bad to play any pocket pair vs a raise, provided you will get paid off when you make your hand.
At 1/2, you most likely will.

Re: Me, aggressive? You gotta be kidding
I dislike the raise there and I'm more aggressive than the next guy. If its suited, have at it, but even then its marginal.
Which raise? The preflop?
My thought process was this... I felt...
