Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
I prefer to cold call AQs pre-flop but if it is a loose-passive table, I have TP2K and am facing two cold on the flop with no other decent draws, I either raise or more likely fold. Hard to say since I know the results now, but with TP2K against multiple opponents I want to see a showdown cheaply or be the one charging others to see the showdown, not paying multibets most likely drawing thin to dead.

Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
shill is saying fold the flop.. i concur.
PF, i think folding, cold-calling, and 3-betting are all pretty close. i'd fold and wait for a read. the suitedness is a bit overrated if you are 3-betting this and trying to isolate. i'd prefer a cold-call to a 3-bet. a fold isn't bad either until you have a read. you won't make much when you flop an Ace and have the best hand. you will often see a showdown with the second best hand if he has AK. |

[ QUOTE ] Fold. 3-betting is out of the question. If you had some kind of read on anyone you could make this call if they raise like fools PF and play poor postflop. [/ QUOTE ] I'm shocked anyone said fold this hand here. We're talking folding for 1 raise from MP. What kind of hands would you call with preflop with 2 cold against unknowns? What hands do you 3-bet with? I understand that my position is not the greatest in the world, and that many players at the table are unknown, but folding this hand in what traditionally is a loose/passive game is absolutely out of the question. In fact, since this hand does very well multiway, and many people at these limits will call 3 cold with any A, its almost a crime not to 3-bet it. I think folding this hand in this spot in this game is very weak/tight. Joe [/ QUOTE ] I usually cold-call this but as btspider said sometimes this is a pre-flop fold. You're dominated against many typical raising hands and only pulling even with most others. |

Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
I think 3 betting preflop is the best default play until you have a read. This can be a fold against the right type of opponent but not against the average one. I hate coldcalling here as position becomes an important factor for me if I am even considering coldcalling.

Easy fold. If MP1 had not raised, then of course raise it yourself, but facing 2 cold I can't muck fast enough.

If I am ahead of someone with 99-JJ, I may not make much if the flop hits me and they easily get away from their hand. Could be a win-little, lose-more possibly scenario. |

Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
I'm suprised that there is such a range of advice about the preflop play of this hand.
I want to thank everyone who responded. It has definitely made me think about the play of AQs preflop. I might pull some AQs hands from PT and post them here for further advice. Thanks again to everyone who responded. Joe |

Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
Sorry dude, I was talking about folding postflop. I love the 3-bet preflop.

Re: What to do on the Flop AQs
Yeah fold the flop.
This hand is too good to goto the muck preflop IMO. Brad |
