Skirted AKo
Decent, but not great daytime Mirage 20/40. PokerBabe is in her usual 1 seat.
I'm in the BB w/ A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. 4 or 5 limpers to me, SB completes and I raise. Flop is Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 7 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] I bet, Babe calls in MP, LMP (Clarkmeister described his table image as the same as mine) raises, folded to me, I just call, Babe calls. Turn is T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], I check, Babe checks, LMP bets, I call, Babe gives up and folds. River is 7 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Check, check, ugh.... |

Re: Skirted AKo
My guess is that the LMP limper put you on an overpair and flopped top two.

Re: Skirted AKo
I play it the same until the babe folds on the turn. I then lead the river.

Re: Skirted AKo
Does the subject line mean that you were not planning to checkraise ?
I do not think there is a big risk of a full. And I am primitive enough to raise the turn. Kim |

Re: Skirted AKo
I think this might have been a case of Fancy Play Syndrome.
I would have lead the turn here and led the river too. (I assume you dont have anyone on the flush.) If I got raised on the turn I would check-call the river if unimproved. |

Re: Skirted AKo
Barry,
Could re-raising the flop be considered? I would assume that LMP is raising either on a draw or can beat at least top pair and you are drawing to the nut flush and straight. Even if your opponent flopped a set you're still taking down the pot about a third of the time. I would've 3-bet and lead the turn. Or in this instance CR the turn since it didn't look like you were getting an overcall from Babe. A hui hou, Adam |

Re: Skirted AKo
I'd likely 3-bet his flop, knock out the babe and face the flop raiser heads up. After you missed a c/r on the turn (I hope), bet the river!
Peace, Joe Tall |

Re: Skirted AKo
If this was Party 15/30, I would 3-bet the flop and lead the turn, and then bet the river.
Since it's live and the Mirage, not sure if that level of aggression would be good or not. |

Re: Skirted AKo
After a couple of months of intense reading on this forum, I think I play too much like a girl (too? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]), but I am just inclined to give position its due here. I don't like variance enough to get all aggressive with a big flush draw and a straight when a made flush is possible and the aggressor has position. Two more hands, and I will have position on him.
After the river check, I agree with the final read that put the flop raiser on top 2, thinking at worse against an overpair. |
