Default Re: First hand of PP 10+1

Even if he did have you beat, you can't possibly know that on the first hand of a Party $10+1. While check/folding the turn and river would have been good this time, over the long run, it's a moronic play that loses you horrible amounts of chips.

If you don't understand this (and a lot more), you should probably throw away AQ in that situation.

He can have AA, KK, QQ, AK, and JT. But think about it? What do you think is more likely, AT or JT? KJ or JT? KQ or KK?

You really think the guy's got one of those hands that beats you based on his betting pattern? You can eliminate flush draws, straight draws, all sorts of random one pair hands? I think it's easier to eliminate a slowplayed set than top pair.

I don't think anyone can do that in this spot, especially the first hand of a $10+1.
