Would you call??
play .25/.50 NL. 5 handed and i raise to 1.5 with A8 suited as BB and limping small blind calls. The small blind player is very aggressive post flop. flop comes A Q 8 rainbow. he checks and i bet 3 and he calls. Turn is 6 and he checks and i bet 5 and he calls. Riv is 4 and he checks and i bet 8, he thinks and goes all in for 24 more. I call, he has AQ, I was doomed from beginning. Anyone think i played it bad and anything else i could have done?

Re: Would you call??
Depends on your read on the guy, but to tell you the truth, I probably would have played it the same way.

Probably no real way to avoid losing money on this hand. I have limped with AQ before and nailed people as well and they were pretty good players. These hands just happen sometimes in poker.

Re: Would you call??
I understand your play. He checked & called the flop and turn. Once he checked the river, I would have suspected something was up. I probably would have checked the river behind him.

hindsight is 20/20 but I say check through the river... a "very agressive postflop" player is just calling you. That's standard rope-a-dope for us maniacs.

Basic read, if you can't lay down two pair you're in a world of hurt, but it's not a VERY bad play. Probably not bad at all actually. Checking the river would be best but it's play money, who the hell cares? Ace? Go all in PF. JMB |
