I understand that it is very strong HU but I do not believe it is very strong HU against someone who has raised PF.

Also... So in response to Dave do you always 3-bet someone with A/Qs?

Our equity with AQs vs. (AA-99, ATs+, AJo+, KQs, KQo) is ~51% (ala poker stove, I can't figure out where it saves the log to paste the actual numbers)

While this equity is thin, the possibility of having the button/position, better postflop play, and people raising random/crappy hands UTG make this a 3bet IMO.

Either fold or reraise preflop, cold-calling is bad.

With implied odds you can draw to ~4.5 outs on the flop and on the turn with a flushdraw added you can call for sure.
I would cap the river though, he has more often trip 4s and doesn't believe your BDF than a boat.

So? One result doesn't matter when searching for the highest EV play

I don't mind the pf cold call since your hand does play well multiway. Raising could be best, but not by as much as people are saying.

3-betting gives you a chance to go HU with UTG. AQs is a very strong hand heads up.

Let's say we 3-bet pf, BB folds and UTG caps.

Is everybody still calling the flop?

Don't leave the table till you have all his chips.

That is all the more reason to raise preflop. You are WAAAAY ahead of 42s, so you must punish him.

For those who just read SSHE and base their play off that, yes its a good book, no it isnt a cult. I like the 3 bet here putting the hand HU, then a turn raise for a freebie. No way im dropping AQs here to some unknown, at this level I know people who cap Kjo and we have noooo read on villan. I dont think your looking at a 3 bet turn, but it will be a +1/-1 situation depending on if you pan out or not, I think the flush draw is solid, and the A, and Q are likely untainetd. Who on here wouldnt raise with JJ-99 preflop in that guys position? And were a much tighter group than the ave low limit idiot.

Well, if you really want to get technical about it...a call here would be better than a reraise because it will not scare away the 42s moron as much as a reraise will. AQs is a huge favorite against 42s preflop isn't it? I guess we want him in. I'd hate to play against a 42 on a board with 2 4's on it though...so I guess a reraise will reduce the number of suckouts. Eh, I don't think I really know which move is better preflop yet.
