AJo in the CO with limpers

[MyTurn2Raise]

[ QUOTE ]
Table is pretty loose / weak. People open limping with all kinds of garbage hands. There's a TAG wannabe to my left and a LAG to my right. No one else is aggro. LAG has taken to capping flops in multiway pots a couple of times. He's also raised the flop and turn and bet the river into a PF raiser on an ace high flop where he shows down A7o and loses to AK.

LAG is MP2.
UTG+1 is loose passive.

I stopped reading here....are you serious?
You don't have to follow through! The 5-6-7 coordination surely hit one of the 5 brazilian pre-flop callers. I check/call on the flop. If i don't catch an ace or club on the turn, I'm out.

Oh yeah...I don't mind the pre-flop raise so much. I'd probably do it too as long as there wasn't rocks limping in front of me. I like the potential of securing the button and having everyone check to me on the flop, which is what happened here.

I always try to remember that raising with AJo in a 6-way pot is not the same as AA in a 3-way one. The flop has to hit my marginal raising hand for my pre-flop edge to be a post-flop edge. It didn't in this case. Your edge is gone with a flop that co-ordinated and 5 opponents.

I wonder what the record for most people ignoring a member is?

[Fnord]

Pre-flop I could go either way. It depends on how tight the button is and how aggro the blinds are plus all sorts of other things I pretend matter.

Betting this flop in a B&amp;M game is bad. Betting it in a check/raise happy online game is taking money and setting it on fire. From there the hand plays itself.

We know this guy is a LAG who doesn't understand domination. There's several strong hands he could be getting kooky with here, including him just having a lower flush. You don't think we're best half of the time on the river?
