Default Re: LAG hand I guess

What kind of preflop raiser pushes without AK or QQ in that spot? Only a dumb one, and I don't have a reputation of being dumb yet (I usually don't get caught with my dumb moves). A good player is going to find it pretty hard to call.

I agree, but what do you put him on though? Would this opp. lay down KJ/T? This seems like an expensive way to find out if you are beat. If he is making a move because he doesn't think you have a K, reraising is only going to get him to fold, but you want him to keep betting cause your AQ is certainly good. If he has a lock, you just lost a lot more money than you should have. This move only works if he has a King and will lay it down, a large part of the time he has many other hands, making this move probably less optimal than others given his range of hands. Do you disagree?

I agree with AZK and cwl.

Your turn bet would be "fine" if you were holding a LAG raising hand like T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], for no pair no draw.

As it is, you have showdown value, so plan to show it down.
