Default AQ beaten by check raise on the river?

73.4/0.00/.45

I have no idea what I did wrong here. The whole table is full of LAGS. Over the long run i seem to just keep going down hill. This happens over and over and over...

folding is way too weak here on a table full of lags.

i dont think you could have done much different.

i bet you lost.

This line seems fine. You got beat by the river flush I assume. I guess if the LAGS are aggressive postflop you could try a turn CR, but I don't see a lot of purpose and would hate to give a free card on that draw heavy board.

Although I probably call when it happens, this is probably a definite fold.

How many hands do you have on villain? He is ridiculously passive, and even if he wasn't, he is check raising the river against 3 opponents! I can't see how 1 pair can be good here even 1 in 20.

Tough fold, but I think it is correct.

i'm with spicy, this is foldable. 73.4/0.00/.45 isn't suicidal.

I'm assuming this hand isn't an indication of the 'table of LAGs' you mention. Eitherway, a check-raise after two other callers on the river usually means your TPGK is no good.

I dont know if this is kosher to put the result here. The result was stupid. This guy should have folded long ago. he won the hand with a pair of kings and a pair of 4's which means he was playing bottom pair the wole way hoping to catch the king. What irriates me and i beleive a lot of other players in the microlimits is that this occurs over and over again. In the long run will you win? If there are 2 or 3 lags at the table and one misses chance are the others may hit their 2 pair or their 82suited flush or whatever.

pretty standard fish move, it is very unprofitable for him to play his hand this way. Poker is a zero sum game, which means if your opponents make unprofitable moves, it is profitable.

Other then preflop, he really didn't play that badly.

Really? Playing bottom pair when your paired with a 4 into an aggressive player with a probably higher pair is good play? (Calling i mean)

What is the EV on this over the long period? Is it positive or negative.
