Daily Hand Post: another decision with JJ

[The Dude]

Raise it up. Easy.

capeerroo!!!, open raise from MP by QTIP = wide range, 3 bet standards from SS = wide range and tends to be more heavily emphasized on PP which you dominate (I may be talking out of my ass here, put me in line someone). You = driver's seat.

[HajiShirazu]

Yeah I join the others and say cap for the reasons the others posted and also agree that it's a fold if one of the raises came from EP.

I call because I don't want to lead out the flop and want to see how much QTip likes his hand. If he only calls, you're set up to trap the field when you hit a J or check-raise when you have an overpair to the flop.

you should be, he should want TAGs folding to his PF raises, not raising him out of the pot [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]


it was a compliment

How do you reason 'if an ace comes you bet out with more confidence'? for me here if an ace comes i bet out, if i get raised i'm likely folding. maybe more confident that i'm behind when i get raised but not very happy....

If I may... I think that the poster means that by not capping preflop hero is reducing the hands that he is representing to the opps and therefore, when the A flops, hero's bet out is inconsistant with his preflop representation and appears donkish.

Hero can only call 3 cold or raise preflop holding AA (slowplaying), AK (slowplaying), AQs??, PP >9??. By not capping, hero basically says to opps that I have no A. Opps can then push him off a hand with big PPs.

OK Toss?
