Villian is 15/7/-2 with 1704 hands. Did I play this correctly?

Looks fine to me postflop. I usually cap here pf, but I'm a bit of a maniac.

Re: 2/4: AK Overs
You're getting 8:1 on the flop but I don't see any justified reason to call against a possible AA/KK/QQ.

Re: 2/4: AK Overs
since its going heads up I think a cap here would be nice. This doesn't change your read though but it could buy you some folding equity if you continue with aggression.
Afterall this TAG could also be 3-betting: TT, JJ, and perhaps even AQs (besides QQ KK AA) so a cap could still make you take kontrol here. I'm not all that sure if a cap is good heads up here could anyone pls comment why not to.. |

Re: 2/4: AK Overs
I think you played it fine. I'd probably cap AKs, but against this particular opponent, I think the call is okay.

[/ QUOTE ] A good player is not 3-betting an UTG raiser with AQs. Aside from that, suppose that villain does indeed have TT or JJ. Then the only possible board that you could hope for a fold against those hands is Qxx or Jxx where xx=undercards to his PP -- if any other card falls, you're either totally screwed or you want to him keep calling drawing to 2 outs. (And frankly, HU I don't see either pocket pair folding to just a single overcard, even if you cap PF.) |
