Re: TQs BB. Standard?
[ QUOTE ]
The overall equity edge between QTs and 65s is huge here. The "bad" from raising preflop with 65s is the same as the bad from raising QTs, but the upside of raising 65s isn't nearly...

Re: TQs BB. Standard?
I don't like raising this preflop. This is a situation that thrives on implied odds. There's a big field, which means you will most likely need a big hand to win. You want to hit a OESD or a flush...

The answer is "usually, but it depends".
Here are the factors I take into consideration:

Re: AJo calls raise in the BB. Line check?
Most hands that beat you would reraise the flop.
MP1 called your two bets on the flop, but he didn't reraise. I think he likes his hand, is afraid he's lost, but can't let it go--something like...

Re: So it\'s folded to me in the small blind...
Absent a read, when it's folded to you in the SB, raise, even with junk. If BB reraises back, fold. If he calls, bet out on the flop, but plan to check-fold the turn if he calls (unless you make a...

Re: When the Board is Paired
Heads up, I'd bet out on the flop. If I was last to act and it was checked to me, I'd bet out.
However, first to act with a large field, I check-fold. You may have the best hand right now, but...

Re: Too passive or good fold?
[ QUOTE ]
It was an odd passive moment for me which is why I posted it.
[/ QUOTE ]
It wasn't passive. It was tight. Passive is when you call too much instead of betting/raising or folding.

Re: Aces big pot.
Think about the possible hand ranges of BB, UTG, and UTG+1, given their play. Two pair is very unlikely here, since things like 96 fold pre-flop. BB and UTG like the flop enough to bet/raise, which...

Re: Flush Draw Check, Bet, or Check/ Raise
With a flush-draw, you need two callers for a bet to be +EV. Even then, it's only very slightly +EV (1.9:1 to hit the flush by the river) so any play where there's a good chance someone will fold is...

Re: TPTK, can you find a fold?
Draws want to see the next card as cheaply as possible, unless their odds are very good and there's enough callers for a value-bet. If he's got a OESD, it's definitely -EV with only two callers. ...

Any reads on BB? When BB bets out after the strong preflop action (where he called 2 bets to go against two raising players!), he's representing a decent hand, at least kings.
When UTG raises,...
