Default Re: ATo vs Flop C/R

Preflop: For me, ATo is a bit light to raise in this spot. But then again, I just looked in PT and the hand has been a solid winner for me -- +0.44bb/hand in the last 160 occurrences, so maybe I should be raising it. Or else maybe the reason I'm winning with it is that I'm not raising...

Generally I fold ATo in EP, open-raise in MP or limp after a couple limpers, and limp/raise in LP depending. But the 5/10 game is tighter than 2/4, and so ATo probably plays differently in your game. I forgot how 2/4 plays.

On the flop, I think the bet/call is standard.

Turn: I don't think you can call. Your two T outs won't necessarily give you a winner; your three A outs are definitely tainted (any K makes Broadway), and your four K outs are a bit discounted. So I'd give you about 3.5 outs here, which isn't really enough. But it's close, and I don't think it's a disaster or anything to call. River fold is good.
