MUBS or appropriate caution?
Reads: Villain is LAP. Raises before the flop with decent hands but not much aggression afterward. Only about 15 hands, though.
PokerStars 0.05/0.10 Hold'em (8 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is UTG with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, Button calls, SB calls, BB :#A500AF(Villain)/ calls. Flop: (10 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(5 players)</font> SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Villain bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 folds, Button folds, SB folds, Villain calls. I was hoping to fold out A-rag hands by representing the bigger ace. Turn: (7 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Villain bets</font>, Hero calls. The donk bet after my flop raise made me wonder if the Aces helped him (55 maybe?) so I slowed down. I wasn't 80% sure I was beaten so I called. River: (9 BB) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">Villain bets</font>, Hero calls. Final Pot: 11 BB |

Re: MUBS or appropriate caution?
I think I might find a fold on the turn, particuarly given your read that villan is passive post-flop.

Re: MUBS or appropriate caution?
I don't get the flop raise. What do you want other players to fold here? They aren't folding a flush draw. Like 23 or 34? I'd rather call and see the turn. Given those two cards I'd probably call down as opposed to raising as some point.

[/ QUOTE ] It doesn't matter if they'll fold or not but I'd much rather they pay 2-bets with whatever they're drawing with. The flop raise is for value. |

[/ QUOTE ] My point is that we don't want them to fold. We want them to call drawing to runner-runner trips. It's .05/.10 I guess. So maybe it's irrelevant. |

We raise to protect our hand in this 10 bet pot. We have aces up, sure, but a gutshot will have odds to chase if we do not raise. Perhaps it is a raise for value. Can we quantify that? |

[/ QUOTE ] But were just pushing opponents off of hands that are drawing almost dead. |

[/ QUOTE ] But by not raising, you are giving them correct odds to call at 12:1 and increasing w/ each caller. BTW, what is MUBS? |
