A Jagoff Playing AJ Off
30 / 60 Party Poker - 10 Handed
MP1 - not tricky, and not too tight. A standard, straight-forward guy who likes to play 27% of his hands and see what happens. MP3 - Not shy about cold calling, but I haven't seen him make it to the river too often, so I can assume that I will recognize it when he hits a flop. I raise from UTG with A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. I do all sorts of things with this hand in this spot...I still don't know which is best. I haven't seen anything and have been playing like a rock, so this felt right. My table image feels tight. MP1 Cold Calls. MP3 Cold Calls. Three to the flop. Flop is J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] I check, fully planning to raise. MP1 Bets, MP3 calls, I raise, MP1 reraises, I end up capping, and MP3 was along for the ride. Turn is the A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. What is my best play here? I bet out, because that's what I do with top two after capping the flop. But after thinking about it, it seems that when first to act out of three, a check might be in order here, in an effort to see the river as cheaply as possible, and allow me to fold if two bets come back to me. I am especially concerned when the third flush card hits on a table of cold callers. But it feels so weak. Your thoughts? Also, a refresher course on the ins and outs of playing AJo UTG wouldn't hurt either. I checked my last 50K hands on PokerTracker, and in a full game, I raise here 39%, limp here 35% and fold here 26%. |

Re: A Jagoff Playing AJ Off
Yeah, that card kind of made everything... you gotta feel MP2 made his hand here with KJh or QJh, maybe KQ. I would probably bet and call one raise, but I'm not comfortable.
