AKo Party 1/2

John Paul · #1 05-08-2005, 11:54 AM

Hello,
I recently moved up to 1/2 and have had pretty much broke even over 3900 hands. I know that folks describe it as "weak tight" but I have seen nothing to indicate the "weak" part. This is very typical of my hands - I get a good holding, have a favorable flop, but other players show aggession. Should I have been more aggressive on this hand? Should I have dumped it somewhere?

In this hand MP2 is loose and sometimes has poor judgement. MP1 was newer to the table and to me. Given the action I had a hard time putting them on hands - trip A's or trip Qs seemed possible, Qs more likely given the preflop action. However, Ax was also possible, and then it is likely that x is > 8.

Preflop seemed straight forward to me and I was glad nobody capped. Flop looked good, but when it was 2 back to me I didn't know where I stood, especially with MP2 making the 3-bet, so I ended up just check calling down.

Thanks for any advice
