Another (weak?) AQ
I thought about calling the flop, but then I thought that it's not worth the risk.
No reads again.. I suck at getting reads, I know. Seat 4 is the button Total number of players : 5 Seat 1: manosarriba ( $2100 ) Seat 2: Mulperi ( $2350 ) Seat 4: Vakpkr ( $270 ) Seat 6: SAND4U ( $2665 ) Seat 8: RiverCapn ( $2615 ) Blinds(100/200) ** Dealing down cards ** Dealt to Mulperi [ Qs Ac ] manosarriba folds. Mulperi raises [600]. Vakpkr folds. SAND4U calls [500]. RiverCapn folds. ** Dealing Flop ** [ Qd, 7h, Kc ] SAND4U bets [700]. Mulperi folds. |

Re: Another (weak?) AQ
Here, I probably push preflop, though raising 3x BB isn't horrible.
However, I think I have to put my chips in here, though in a real game, I might not. Always depends on reads. There's just so much in the middle and so little you have behind. |

Re: Another (weak?) AQ
I'm talking in relation to pot-size. t1600 in the middle, you've got t1700 behind. HU, I would have definitely moved it in here.
Based on the pot size, in general, folding MPTK is a very bad idea. |

Re: Another (weak?) AQ
Yeah. If it was heads up or ITM my only worry would be how to get all of villains chips in the middle. But I am not so confident in plays like this on or near the bubble. I feel like I'm too easily behind villain here, and don't want to risk the tournament.
If I think about how I would play it in villains position though, I would check/call or check/raise TP or better and with a more mediocre holding or a complete bluff I might rather bet straight ahead and then fold to a raise. I'm just so confident in my preflop play compared to this situation that I'd rather pass it when still I have a nice stack. This can easily be a leak. What do others think? |

He's still going to have trouble calling with a weak king, and he might even call with a worst Q. [/ QUOTE ] |

He called a substantisl raise and then leads 1/2 pot with a two broadway board. He has bet a third of his stack, but he has enough chips to get away from it. This is either a probe bet hoping you missed or a big hand trying to bait Hero. Your either way ahead or way behind. Hero can't raise without commiting his stack. I would call this and see if Villian has the stomach to bet the turn. If he bets the turn I probably let it go. This seems kinda weak, but to villian it may look like a monster. Is this terrible? |

Re: Another (weak?) AQ
exactly how I play it.
pushing PF is not bad, but you're not desperate or anything. were you raising with the intention of calling a push? in this case, you should be doing the pushing yourself. |
