Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
I decided to shut up after my first replies to this thread and try to learn something.
I am confident that if HeelofTar folds this flop then Raptor isn't checkfolding the turn. Right? (right?).
What's interesting to me, though, is that Raptor says that AK or AQ is *not* what he's afraid of. Does that mean you're playing AK the same way? Or I suppose you raise AK preflop into a limped pot out of the blinds...
Against multiple opponents out of position in a game where you're likely to be in a higher EV situation soon I don't mind the play. I think everyone is right - Raptor likely has the best hand BUT he loses a lot of chips when he doesn't and doesn't win many when he does so why continue?
At first I didn't agree with raptor but after reading this whole thread I think his logic makes the most sense. Don't push your small edges when you think you'll have a bigger edge later.
