Default Re: Lost with A9s

This is a really tough hand. I tried to find a fold before the river but I can't bring myself to it until the time that you did.

One suggestion for the turn is to simply lead out; see how BB reacts to it plus the rest of the field. Are they "tamed" by the ace and/or three-flush (the latter being extremely common for 3/6)? Fold to a raise.

I posted the above on the other thread.

To respond to the current posts:

Can we fold this flop:

1.) When we have no read on UTG yet -- could easily be pumping a draw which is extremely common at 3/6 and just as easily betting just about any card on that flop + less (assuming he's the avg. 3/6 player).

2.) When BB's cap could still mean a lot of things here. If we decide based purely upon stats then yeah, it doesn't look good. I need more information before I lay this down on teh flop though. If I don't have a read from observation, then I take the line I suggest on the turn and go from there.
