Default Re: Hi, my first hand post.

I agree with ak13. This seems like a classic hand to play passively. It's good enough to beat bluffs, but not good enough to get better hands to fold. So aggression is likely to work against you by either giving better hands more money or getting rid of the hands you'd like to stick around.

Also I don't see how one could fold a hand like this. There's too many players who will push a hand like AK or AQ here to throw your hand away, as well as the hands ak13 mentioned.

Just to clarify -- AK beats us, right?

Did you know the K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] was coming on the river?

and FWIW, TAG would probably 3 bet AK and AQ preflop.

I think this hand's really interesting so I decided to cross-post this in the SS forum to see what they thought over there: Link

Edit: For future reference, 2/4 hands should go in the SS forum

There was some horrible advice in this thread. I play the hand the same way against most TAG's.

Don't you think raising the turn is a better line to take if you wanted to showdown? You spend the same amount of bets, but you also gain more and lose less when villain is on a draw.

The turn raise gains more value when you can make him fold. You don't really want to see every showdown here (there are SO many cards that can beat you on the river)
