Default Re: AJo and KQo

if anyone else asked the question I would've given it a real answer. the fact that he's done is best to try and insult every person that posts here doesn't exactly make me want to help him.

anyway, AJo and KQo is so close, that it doesn't really matter. I feel like Ed putting them as a limp in tighter games is almost arbitrary, but the reason why you should raise in looser games is because your preflop equity is greater. in tight games when you're getting cold called by hands like AT+ and KQ+, there isn't as much value in raising these hands preflop

You raise AJo and the guy with AQo is more likely to fold

I really don't see too many players folding AQo to a raise. From my experience, im about the only 1 i see doing it. If the guy has some knowledge, he'd likely 3 bet, if he doesn't, he'd just coldcall. He'd coldcall even if it was an absolute rock raising.

I mean, it's a nice thought, but kind of unrealistic. Unless you're on a tighter, tougher table.

I was talking about the average player, not the average poster on 2 + 2.

The posters know it's also player/positionally dependant.

There are a lot of tight players playing $3/$6 who would fold AQo to a raise.

It also doesnt need to happen much for it to be profitable.
