Default Borgata 10/25 new AQo line....

10/25, good game, I've been playing for about 20 minutes, haven't done much. Solid TAG limps UTG (Roco for the regulars), LAG who is running good (3k -> 33k in 10 hours, yes it's all on the table) limps, both blinds are the biggest preflop calling stations in the game, they call anything. I have AQo on the button and about 3.5k, I limp.

Comments?

That game was DISGUSTING. I didn't play, but sweated a friend who is a regular in the game. The action is unreal...I may play next time in AC. But the 40 and 80 games are so good, it's tough to leave my comfort zone. I'm not too fond of getting a $5000 bluff thrown in my direction...tough decisions.

I still like a raise here.

Yes it is most likely that everyone will call it, but there is always a chance one of the blinds will fold.

In the long run i think its gonna save you money when you flop top pair and they have some garbage 2 pair that they would have folded to a PFR.

Reminds me of Diablo AQo Scenario. Taken from Retro

looks pretty standard. if you raise, once the blinds come along then utg and the lag are obviously joining in as well, leading to an inflated pot with 5-way action; with AQo, gonna be real tough to flop something you'd wanna play a huge pot with. also, rocco is entirely capable of lrr-ing in that spot (and not necessarily with a better hand than yours).

Forgot about that Diablo post. My logic was the same as what he said and what Mike said in this thread. Sweet.

If I raise to 150, it means I have to play a $600ish pot or more preflop with 3k behind and AQo, against this lineup. Not fun.

id personally rather have a 500 pot HU with position, than have AQ vs 4 opponents..... but its not really "bad" to just call.
Rocco is really a lot looser than people tend to give him credit for imo

That game was taking away players from the 10/20 game I was playing because they had to gawk at the large pots.
