KQ flops trips against laggy PF raiser
How does this line look?
MP2 is 56/18/2.2 Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (9 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. UTG calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls. Flop: (8.50 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls, UTG calls. Turn: (6.25 BB) 4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font> BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, Hero calls, BB folds, UTG folds. River: (8.25 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 3-bets</font>, Hero calls. Final Pot: 14.25 BB I strongly considered raising the turn, but decided not to for whatever reason. Thoughts? |

Re: KQ flops trips against laggy PF raiser
3-bet preflop. start raising on the flop. you do not want BB and UTG to see cheap turns with QJ/QT/JT, and you do want to get bets in with a great hand.

Re: KQ flops trips against laggy PF raiser
Is this 3 bet strictly to isolate? I understand if it is suited, but offsuit don't we run a high risk of being dominated even by a laggy raiser?

Yeah, I almost folded pre-flop. Lags have a tendancy to have me dominated at all the wrong times.

No, but you'll hit a flush about the same % of time that he'll have you dominated.

Re: KQ flops trips against laggy PF raiser
the 3-bet is to get this heads up or 3-way and to win the pot when we both miss. say he has an ace and the flop is J95. if he holds A6/A7/A8/AT he will have a hard time continuing.
3-betting is surely better than coldcalling, which in my opinion is the -EV option. folding is 0 EV, and reraising is probably just a little bit on the positive side. |

If the pfr'er donk bets us on the J95 flop you are raising it and folding to a 3 bet?

[/ QUOTE ] no. doing so would be horrible poker. perhaps the reason you feel you are running bad is because you are folding hands in profitable situations? if i had 3-bet preflop and raised the flop, the pot would be plenty large enough to call for my gutshot to the nuts. |

[/ QUOTE ] I really doubt coldcalling is -EV here, and I actually prefer it to 3-betting. I kind of think that against someone this aggressive we are likely the ones that are going to be put to the test if we both miss. |
