Blind attack/defence post #2 - Defence with A4o
Blind attacker is 11/8/2 - tight/agressive.
Two questions - can I defend here with A4o? And what to do on flop? I want to c/r here, fold to his 3bet and c/f turn UI if he call me. Is my line good?

Re: Blind attack/defence post #2 - Defence with A4o
I think that I fold this PF unless I've got a good read on the opponent that he will loosen up his range when stealing. If you are going to defend against a player with these stats I think you need to 3-bet PF.
Also FWIW - I think in blind attack/defense and any other HU/SH situations reads are more important than VPIP/PFR/AF. At least take into account his WSD/W$SD as well. Having the knowledge of these additional factors could easily sway your line on either of the two hands your posted one way or the other. Playing HU/SH while only using a limited amount of information is bound to get you into trouble. I 4-6 table as well and with practice (and a HUD [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]) taking into account these additional factors isn't that difficult. |

I fold this against this type of player especially. We're paying off when dominated, and not likely to get much out of him when ahead.

So I will stop my blind postings and can I ask you a question - If you would begin thinking about your blind atk/def how would you begin to understand it? I thinkging about going to HUSH games and begin to study HUSH forum and try to play 5/10 SH. Is it good way? Do you have good links/links to books about blind play? Thanks! |

The line you're talking about really counts on Villain immediately folding to the flop checkraise, and I don't think that's going to happen often enough. If you follow-up with a bet on the turn, you have a better chance of getting a fold, but it's sort of an expensive defense, versus a tight player who quite likely has a better hand. |

I'd probably check fold this flop. The pot is small and you're going to have to put in a relatively large amount of bets to get villain to fold.
