bump...anybody think i should have folded to the turn checkraise?

Agg of 2.0 isn't insanely aggressive, and I doubt AJ or QQ does a turn checkraise here. You can probably lay it down. Really looks like AK/AA/KK to me.

I'd call it down - but maybe that's a leak in my game. I'd have a real hard time folding that with one opponent.

i think you should fold. would i fold? prolly not.

Grisgra · #6 01-29-2005, 01:22 AM

I agree. I would have a very difficult time making this fold as well. Nonetheless, I think that when I'm playing my best I can make it -- and that at 5/10 it's a good fold.

At that wacky 10/20 limit, I think you have to call it down. ?

Let's say you called the flop and raised the turn. This costs 2.5BB. But, if he 3-bets me on the turn, I am much more confident that I can lay it down.

Your line costs 2BB, but doesn't give me enough confidence to lay it down.

Plus, my line will extract more when ahead (unless he can fold TT-JJ in this spot to my turn raise)

I don't like this line. The flop lead out really doesn't give Evan much info about villians hand. It could be a monster, but alot of times this is more indicative of a draw (and the board is very drawy). It'd suck to give away a turn card cheaply here, so I like playin this one fast.

I like a raise on the flop too here. I'd probably play it the same, but expect to lose most of the time to A5 or some crap.
