Re: Horrible play and an expensive reminder
Oh, come on! The guy is asking for advice - which is what the forums are for. No need to make him feel stupid.
Twang: The gap-concept was introduced by David Sklansky in "The Theory of Poker" and states that you need a better hand to call (or raise) an opened pot than you need to open a pot. In this situation with a raised and reraised pot your AQs is a borderline hand. Against strong players at a tight table it's almost a mandatory fold behind a raise and reraise - unless your postflop play is top notch.
The gap-concept is also well explained in Dan Harringtons brilliant book "Harrington On Hold'em vol I."
