Re: Standard or weak?
[ QUOTE ]
are you not leading on that flop because you are assuming player has bigger PP? This seems pretty weak to me. Can someone please explain more in depth. Are you making that assumption when you call his minraise PF? if so then are you just hoping to flop a set and folding otherwise? I understand that the minraise is often used to reopen the betting when you have a hand you are willing to go all-in with, but it seems that at this point, without a good read on the player. Anyone? [/ QUOTE ] I'm not leading because I don't know anything about villain. I took a conservative route calling the minreraise preflop playing purely for set value. I don't want to bet into the raiser when I don't know yet if he will raise it with unpaired overcards to try and blow me off an obvious overpair of my own. As a general rule, I put a preflop reraiser (min-reraise or real reraise) to hold something like AA-TT or AK. Sure, some people reraise all the way down to 77 and KQo and others only reraise AA-QQ but I think AA-TT/AK is a good ballpark starting range. Against that range, the only hands that will play a big pot on this flop that I'm beating are AcKc and TT (with TT maybe getting away). AcKc is a slight favorite with two cards to come and would probably play the flop aggressively, causing me to make a FTOP mistake by folding to that aggression (as AA-QQ will probably be equally aggressive). Had I limped the JJ in the first place (I don't always raise) and called the raise, I would lead out at this flop a larger percentage of the time as villain's range of raising hands is much wider than his range of reraising hands. |

Re: Standard or weak?
With no read here, and donkish preflop minraise - I think your lay down is the best way to go. Wait for a better spot to put your chips in. Online play minraises typically mean nothing, or a MONSTER.
Here - it looks like a monster. |

Re: Standard or weak?
Standard. I made the same play last night with QQ. I'm positive that it was the right play.
Edit: Oh, I had a strong read on my villain. Again an unknown, I might call c/c flop, c/f turn or something with QQ since he MIGHT do this with JJ or AK or whatever. People rarely fire two barrels, though without AA/KK. |
