AKs in reraised pot

I took a bunch of crap for this hand, but what was I supposed to do. Villian is new to table so no read, I'm playing LAG but he hasn't seen this. Anyone play this different?

What bragging?

EMcWilliams · #5 12-13-2005, 04:51 PM

Posting a royal I think constitutes bragging. Villians weak lead leaves me to he has QQ, giving you a boat load of outs.

TexArcher · #6 12-13-2005, 04:55 PM

I don't see the problem?

poboy · #7 12-13-2005, 05:02 PM

That was my thinking as well. I figured his most likely holdings were AA,KK,QQ, and AK. I'm in great shape against everything except AA(and even that isn't too bad). Villian thought my call pf and flop push were the fishiest play he's ever seen, and the table agreed. I felt my line was pretty standard.

the problem with this hand is, you actually payed attention to criticism by people at a 25NL table.

Other than that it's played well.

creamdog · #9 12-13-2005, 05:26 PM

You aren't in "great" shape against any of those hands. Preflop you only are even a coinflip against the QQ, the other two are killing you.
On the flop, the aces have you beat and agains the other two hands they are still coinflips. You probably wont get these hands to fold, especially in NL25 so if that was your read, i would have called no pushed.

I was speaking post-flop and "great" is a relative term. I'm slightly ahead of KK/QQ and not very far behind AA(43/57) and of course FR any other AK, not exactly a horrible situation. Also I don't believe this is an easy call for him with any of those hands though my intention was not to make him fold. The problem with calling is maybe he doesn't pay me off if I catch, since my draw is pretty obvious. JMO
