AQ Check-up
Hand 1
Villain is a solid 28/20 tag. What's the best flop play?

Hand 2 Villain is loose, but of unknown aggression. What's the turn play?

Turn: (4.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font> Hero bets or checks? Hand 3 UTG is 50/20, a lag preflop but pretty passive after. CO is a 69/40 maniac but he has not been getting out of line postflop for awhile. Still, he is capable of anything. This one felt sort of futile.

Re: AQ Check-up
Hand 3, I can't think of any other way of playing except maybe raising the river to knock out a low PP for UTG. Read dependent of course.
In hand 2, I think I bet. I can't imagine I can call a bet if I check since my hand sucks. In hand 1, I think the risk of getting 3bet is worth the chance to clear out the field and the slim slim chance you get a free card. |

I actually really really considered a turn c/r but I decided UTG wouldn't fold a better hand since it would look so much like an isolation of the maniac--and of course it risks a ton of bets. It seems like the river would be even more transparent. |

[ QUOTE ] 2-check [/ QUOTE ] Check fold seems weak [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] [/ QUOTE ] well the thing is, if you bet, he is gonna call for sure with any diamond( or pair or wahtever else), and might raise with a big one. And if he just calls, then you are stuck in the same spot on the river. I think I check call the turn, and check fold the river. if you have been sexying and screwplaying enough, maye you will get lucky and he will check one of them through [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |

Re: AQ Check-up
Hand 1: Call much more often than raise. Raise more often if SB has a weak image of you and go for cheap showdown and don't do this again on this table until the TAG leaves.
Hand 2: Against loose unknown, check-fold this 50%, bet-fold 40% and check-call or check-raise 10%. Hand 3: Consider checking flop occasionally, especially if you like to check-raise maniacs even after capping the flop. If you think your hand will still be good on the turn often, then the way you played it is best. |

Re: AQ Check-up
Hand 1: I raise if I think I can fold out MP and Button. Otherwise, I call.
Hand 2: Check-fold. This also sets up some nice checkraising opportunities in subsequent hands. Hand 3: Tough, tough spot. Not really sure if there is a correct play on this hand. Maybe fold the river since it looks like UTG wants to show this down and when he doesn't CO might actually have a hand. Your best play might have been to 3-bet the flop and see if you could fold UTG right there. |
