Messing with AQo

[raccon]

Was it correct to call 2 bets preflop after SB capped? I feel I made big mistakes on the flop too.

The preflop call is tough, if they haven't been to active then i'd throw it out, the pot is giving 5-1 on the call (including the BB final call), but you're gotta be drawing massively behind against semi sane opponents.

Once that flop comes you cannot fold it, even if you originally anticipated a flop cap youd still be getting something like 20-4 giving you odds to call with just your' straight and bd flush draw.

The river call is horrible here.

I did a pokerstove analysis on the preflop situation, not looking good assuming that they're not completely retarded...

If BB is 3 beting with better then your looking even worse preflop. Going by this it makes it a preflop fold...

Of course if they're LAG's these numbers don't matter much [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

You were fine up to the river.

Why call the river?
