Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
I agree with how you played it raptor....
But for the sake of discussion, how do you play this hand if you were on the button? Facing the same action. |

check-call the turn. If he checks behind, lead out on the river, if he bets the turn and bets again on the river possibly fold.

[ QUOTE ] I don't understand. If you just refuse to play AJ then fold it pre-flop. If you can't play it with this flop what the hell are you doing in the hand. You've clearly decided that villian has an AK,AQ,set or 2 pair and carefully eliminated all other possibilities through some unknown power. Insight into the use of this power would be appreciated. [/ QUOTE ] i love it when people who have earned zero respect from me and have likely playedl ess than 500 sngs try to berate me instead of calmly asking questions.

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
alright, here is my analysis...people rarely open limp ak or aq in the 55s, and because the pot is not big, i dont see the second limper limping ak or aq either. you are likely ahead, so forchrisakes lead the flop and get some information back. the pot is still very small, so it will be easy to get away from.

Damn raptor, didn't even see you at my table. If I told you I had 2 hearts on this hand would you have folded pre-flop?

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
Meh, I really don't like it. The turn should be at least worth check-calling with the blank. I agree with Unarmed. Villains could have any ace, and a J kicker should be good here. I like pushing the small edges, and you've got a pretty nice edge here, which can lead to a bigger stack L4 for more bullying.
Checking flop is an interesting idea that works. I like the check-call line a lot, need to use it more. |

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
Myself, I pop the flop to 100 and dump if I get resistence. Like to know where I am.
Then again, on my best I do to the 30's what you do to the 200's steadily. Yikes!! P |

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
From what I can tell by your posts in this thread you played this hand to gain information about your opponents so you can get into situations later with this knowledge and destroy them for TONS of chips. You weren't necessarily playing this hand in order to make the best hand and win a few meaningless chips this early in the SNG.
I hope I'm at least somewhat correct here?? What I don't understand is that if I am correct and this hand was strictly about information why not raise preflop? You have two late position limpers who have signaled they are holding garbage and want to try to see a flop and if you are looking for information which information is more important: How they play postflop (which will occur less and less frequently as blinds get higher), or how weak they are preflop (and preflop play obviously becomes more prominent near the bubble). To me, noticing that they limp in with garbage and fold with it would probably help me more later if they limp with higher blinds. |
