Fun Fold 5-10 6max

gomberg · #1 10-18-2005, 10:33 AM

I've been running / playing bad the last week (even after moving down to 5-10), and want to post some hands.

5-10 6 max, pretty passive game. I've been pretty tight recently, and havn't been caught reraise stealing (although I had done a squeeze in the last 20 minutes or so).

I'm in BB w/ KK and cover the table.

UTG limps, UTG+1 raises to $45, folded to me, I reraise to $160, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls.

I've only seen UTG+1 raise solid hands, and he should think I have a good hand.

Flop ($330) QTTr. I bet $250, he calls w/ about $850 left.

Turn ($830). blank. I check, he bets $370, I fold. Standard?

The hand before this, I had seen him call a raise w/ AQ, call a bet on a KQx flop, bet < 1/3 pot turn blank, bet most of pot on KQxxK river.

I'm not sure he would call a reraise though with AQ preflop unless he had reason to.

I like checking this flop...but that may just be me...I'd probably check with AA, QQ, AQ too, but I'd bet with AK or a T. Does this make any sense?

Betting AK here is lighting money on fire.

I think I understand why but could you explain ?
(My thinking is that only hand thta Villain would fold (and some donkish Villains even wont fold that) is AK, he will call even with JJ and you really cant fire second barrel cause VIllain also call with his monsters and Villains stupid enough to call preflop with AQ will probably contine calling on later streets. Correct ? )

Yeah, as soon as I made that bet, it was like "hmmm - if I get action here, I'm folding - as the only hand I beat is JJ / AQ, which may not even be in there at this point." So I turned KK into 72o on that flop. Not sure what happens if I check.

Would you give up on a Q22 flop? How likely do you think he is to have a 10?

gomberg · #9 10-18-2005, 01:14 PM

In my mind a Q is the worst card in the deck for me. I put him on JJ-AA squarly, maybe AKs. I'd feel much better w/ an A out there instead.

Ahem, obviously ignore this. I thought AZK was referring to betting AK on the turn.

I tell you, it's these damn faster Party tables that are addlign my mind..
