Instance for slowplaying
Party 1/2
I'm UTG and I raise first in with KQs Fold, fold, fold, Cold Call from MP (ok player) Fold, fold, fold, BB completes. (good player) Both of these players I had gotten into altercations with on previous hands. Flop KQQ. 1) Smallish pot. 2) Free card will probably give someone second best hand. 3) I have very little chance of being outdrawn. Slowplay?? Looks like it. What do I do? BET Why? Because my image was kind of loose and I had been raising a lot before. I thought that there was no way these guys are goign to muck to me. fold fold. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: Instance for slowplaying
hmmm. I would bet the flop too, but I'm not too sure I would raise utg with KQs. Am I way off here?

Am I way off here? [/ QUOTE ] Yep. Edit: To clarify, table reads are important here, but on a good loose-passive table I raise KQs from every position. Good high card strength, connectedness, suitedness. It plays well against lots of opponents or few unless dominated. |

[/ QUOTE ] Capping with KQs is interesting. Button may think you're on a blind steal attempt, but he could have a better hand. In most situations, unless I read him as a LAG, I think I'd just call the 3-bet. You could be dominated (AK, AQ) or just plain behind (AA, KK). |
