Re: L3: AJ hand ($33)
nope -- I'd be done with it and be in alright shape still given the chips you still have.
I would bet larger here committing myself and the villain could be pushing w/ a FD which would be frustrating... |

Re: L3: AJ hand ($33)
Why would you want to commit yourself if you're willing to get away from the hand?

Re: L3: AJ hand ($33)
Here were my thoughts at the time.
AA There's a slim, slim chance he has played AA this way. AQ/KQ If he has KQ, I think he leads this flop. In my experience, KQ does not want to check here, especially because if it gets checked behind. AQ, sometimes checks here, but again, I think both of these hands lead. 88 If he has 88, this is precisely how I think he plays this. He's got me if this is his hand. JJ Again, if he has JJ, great. I think there's a good chance JJ reraises me here pf, but may just flat call. Again, c/r is certainly his plan of attack. I seriously doubt QQ just flat calls preflop. I'm eliminating this hand. I'm sure I'll be told it's a mistake to do so, but I think it's rare. QJ This is how QJ plays this hand. Draws: Flush draw, and straight draw heavy board. I've said this in other posts, this c/r really feels like a draw to me. I don't know how to assign probabilities, but at this point, I assign this the highest probability. Straight draw hands are AK and KT. TJ I am seperating this hand from the above group. I think there's little chance TJ plays it this way. I think TJ is more likely to lead the flop. That being said, villain may read my bet to be weak, and c/r allin, thinking I might fold. Completed straight: 9T I think this generally folds preflop. All in all, I think again, I'm ahead here more than I am behind. I think that I am more inclined to call hands like this on the weekends rather than during the week. Weekend is very loose, bluff and semi-bluff heavy. Anyway, isn't this the whole point of beting less than pot? If anyone cares to, I'd like to hear rebuttals. |
