Default Re: Weak ace in the blind

I like the PF call. Hero is getting 7.5XBB:2XBB ~3:1 to make the call and only has to be 21% in the hand. Hero is easily much higher than this against a LAG and an unknown. The hand is particularly good because its 3-ways and villain is generally less likely to bet with air against 2 other players. Specific reads are helpful.

I'd check after the flop, and might consider continuing in the hand since you should easily be able to represent the flush if another heart comes.

PF fold is EV- by definition (since calling is EV+).

Given your image a pf raise might be strong.

74s is much worse than a3o, although the chance of domination is lower, so hero needs to proceed more carefully with his a3.

GAP is a guideline.

Flame on fellow donkeys!

I am not going to argue any more with people who think A3o is a good hand to call a raise with.
