1st hand of a 10+1: AQ from EP

Slim Pickens · #1 02-17-2005, 01:18 AM

Any help is appreciated... [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

1) Should I even be in this hand?
2) If I am going to play, is a limp better?
3) Do I need to grow some manhood here and call on the turn?

EDIT: UTG goes all-in (500)
Sorry, I'm a little slow in the head.

Uh... how can you fold before UTG acts?

I wouldnt raise so much preflop especially with this hand. I still think your ahead on the turn more times than not. He would most likely checkraise a ten and he may be semibluffing with a flush draw.

You're going to get many better spots to put your money in when you at least have some idea of who the honest people and the nutcases are.
You've gotta fold this preflop.

Fold preflop, easy call on th turn if you have to play it.

I used to raise this but now after reading the forum, easy fold in level 1. AK I would raise but not 100.

Easy fold pre-flop, especially in early position. These are the exact hands that get you in trouble in levels 1-3.
