Re: Teach me to play LAG
[ QUOTE ]
I'd say he's more representing an Ace or two pair. I doubt Villain folds Aces up. [/ QUOTE ] playing three handed i think his range of possible holdings here is WAY wider then aces up. i really like the delayed semi-bluff when playing shorthanded in position. the real question you need to ask is will this player fold A9 in this spot not whether he'll fold aces up. you also have to realize alot of the time you're Q is good here. |

Re: Teach me to play LAG
I bluff a lot, but hardly ever on a situation like this..
how do you know that he doesnt have a very good hand himself.. or maybe he's a maniac that calls with AK. But then again.. maybe that's why I still can't beat 10/20.. people run over me so easy.. at 5/10 you don't ever see this kind of play.. I don't know when to identify situations when bluffing like this would be ok. |

[/ QUOTE ] I think SB vs BB people look you up a lot easier. edit: one more comment, if 7 added 2suit villain is more likely to look you up as you can have pair (or gut) + flush draw now. |

Re: Teach me to play LAG
i suppose you guys are all exactly right on this one. the turn did put a flush draw up there, the villan was an unknown, if he had known me he would have folded. i figured he was a good tight regular player cause of how he joined the table (waiting for that shorstack to sit), it's tough to call whole stack with just top pair.
