Too Tight?
Here are 2 short hands that I folded quickly heads up. I don't think there is a huge error here. But I was wondering what other thought. The main reason I folded both of these hands is that I didn't think there was much of a chance that someone was betting to push me out of a pot. I assumed the bets were either made by legit hands or players that legitimatly thought there bad hand was good.

Re: Too Tight?
Seems ok to me. I wouldnt want to be chasing these draws heads up. In the first one, the other guy's ace is the killer...If he had a King I might call one bet to see if i can pair my ace or get another heart

Re: Too Tight?
Hand 1, that's the problem with calling full bets h/u with 3 fl's on 3rd when you don't have the overcard. Your odds drop considerably when you miss a heart on 4th and chasing is fishy.
Hand 2 is different and player dependent. That's a brutally weak call of the bring-in as the last player to act with an A up h/u. If he's slowplaying looking for action it's a mistake. Anyway, if you know him and he's a rock or tricky, I'd release. If he's an unknown, I wouldn't give him tricky points just yet. Maybe that's a fault of mine, but I'd be more apt to call or even play back a little here on a cheap street h/u to find out about him. He may just be awful. A scare card can either win it for you on 5th, give you reason to fold or maybe catch a freebie from him. |

Re: Too Tight?
Pretty routine folds in both cases. I look for reasons to take one off with a three-card flush, but it's harder to find them when it's heads-up.

Re: Too Tight?
hand 1: fine
hand 2: fine but more marginal. if the pot were slightly bigger i would say call since if he is auto betting you might be able to catch some scare cards or even a diamond flush and if you can get a free card by raising or can play him off his hand then great. Pat |
