Hi all,
I've been playing in some touger games lately and I need to work on my game to keep from being run over. I've gone from playing with 1 or 2 guys that raise around 20% preflop to 4 and sometimes all 5 opps are 20%+. I'm going to make a poll today about which hands you guys defend the button vs a CO raise. At a later date I may do the same with SB hands. Here's the situation. You are on the button, CO's stats are 40/26 and steals 46% of the time. SB is 42/10 and BB is 27/17. CO always peels the flop and will give up on air on the turn. |

A5o, A2o, JTo, 87s, and 22 are the only ones I'd fold. Guess I'm much looser in this spot than most.

Yeah I'd call 98s so perhaps 87s should be a play too? JTo seems a bit too weak to me at 42ish% equity with no suitedness.

i'm an idiot. I thought hero is BB instead of button. Deleted my post.

I think that I defend the SB (by 3 betting) much more vigorously than I do when defending the button. For example, sometimes I'll 3bet QTo from the SB... but I don't believe that I have considered this from the Button vs a CO steal. Could someone who has a pretty good grasp on the difference of getting buckwild from the SB defense vs getting buckwild from the the "Button Defense." Perhaps even just a simple general viewpoint could get me started on how to compare/ revise my approach.
Edit: For example... how does posistion compared to, pot odds, initiative, and believeablity of big holdings compare in each spot? |

:P cuz button isn't usually "defended" [/ QUOTE ] Ever hear the expression "you should raise that in the CO to steal the button"? Or "if the button's weak you can steal it all day"? |

Well, I was sqaurely in the majority for every hand. Nice to see that I guess. [/ QUOTE ] Me too. Even the hands where I mix up what I do (QJs, TJs) is reflected in the poll. A9o is a clear raise and A5o is a clear fold, where is the cut-off for you guys? For me its A9, I guess I should have added A8o and A7o to the poll. |
