Default Re: Folding AQ on semisteal

[ QUOTE ]
Ok I don't understand why folding here is the right play. Pot odds are greater than 2-1. You are a roughly 45-55% dog against pair JJ or below. calling here is +EV chip against any thing except for KK, AA, or AK. If you lose you aren't even out.

Don't people blind steal with hands like Ax, Kx, and QJ? how do you know that the CO has a great hand as opposed to merely a good one?

I think the key here is that villain is loose/passive. I'd be much more apt to put a LP player on a huge hand after a limp-reraise than a LAG. I seriously doubt a LP player would be messing around with a coinflip hand, at least not enough to make this a +EV play.

Fairly easy fold.
