I'd like to respond with something meaningful, but my brain hurts from trying to figure out what's what.

Its fixed, love to hear what you'd do considering the reads.

Grrr. SB is the idiot, button is LAGgy.

Button, we're talking about ~20%+ PFR.

Obviously my little pea brain was thinking that button would raise any ace here preflop, so I call down. This sound alright?

I don't know, I'd fold expecting Ax, or Axs. A lot of low aces won't be raised after a limper. Then again, some have called me weak tight. I think your line is fine with a strong read, but 20% PFR isn't enough.

If you don't think Button has an Ace, and are prepared to call his raise on the turn, I think you should instead be raising the turn yourself.

TazQ · #9 01-03-2005, 09:50 PM

I was planning to fold if SB called the turn raise.

Should be: SB bets, I call, Button raises, SB folds, I Call.

why no flop raise? (real question)
