Re: ($2000) L1, AK TPTK facing minraise

I think the pf action makes this hand more interesting than it otherwise would be. |

If you are folding AK on an Ahigh flop to a minraise, your range of calling after you raised pf on a Ahigh board is very small (AA) and it would be hugely +EV to take a shot at you at such flops. I understand obviously you would change the way you play this hand if you've seen such plays from the villain before but I still find it hard to believe folding 100% can be the correct play here against an unknown. f |

I believe it is a high varience, but +EV, move. OOP against a weak-tight pre-flop raiser early levels. What is his range? Flop comes specifically A-rag-rag or K-rag-rag with no flush draw. I check. Villian bets 1/2-3/4 pot. Which hands in his range does he bet? What if any does he check? I raise somewhere between min-raise and pot. What percentage of his range does he fold? I'm willing to make this move because I think the ~1300 stack gives me more flexibility to pickup small pots early and helps me more than a ~700 stack early hurts me. Thoughts?? |

Re: ($2000) L1, AK TPTK facing minraise
Against unknowns I never do something some percent of the time and something else some other percent. I do what I think is optimal given my read and my image. If I decided a fold is best here, I would fold and then take that into account in the future, possibly setting up a trap later. In a STT you are just too likely to never have a similar situation come up again to intentionally do something you think is second best.

Re: ($2000) L1, AK TPTK facing minraise
Thank you for correcting my thinking here (the signs of me being a limit player).
Any insights on the specifics of the above situation? f |
