Default Re: AQ vs. SLAG

Sorry I mis-spoke myself. Not a limp re-raise (not sure what that would be) but a min-raise or what I call a limp raise.

As for the rest, not sure how to reply. The whole concept of being on a draw is not just the pot odds, but the implied odds involved. A call may be incorrect given the pot odds, but if a player thinks he can get your stack, or a piece of your stack, then the question becomes how much more does the drawer have to get from you if he hits his draw? The fact if you hit you will get paid off is the thing that makes calling a bet with a draw with incorrect pot odds the correct play, i.e. +EV.

So take away the implied odds and a call becomes incorrect or -EV.

The best example is when a player calls a push he has no implied odds. The money in the pot is all he can get so a call becomes correct based on just the pot odds.
