Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
I take pretty much the same/similar line to UMTerp.
I dunno wtf you're doing folding on the turn here. Another line that may be good is check/raising the flop for value to maybe t75 or to let your opponent define his/her hand further. If called you can continue to bet for value, although I'd rather just call down my opponent as I'm OOP. Yugoslav

But honestly, this could mean ANY ace. I really don't agree that an ace is getting scared into cheking behind on the turn here. He has an ace! AN ACE DAMMIT!!! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
I think that I see the problem in calling or raising the turn:
It is a miniscule pot to win, but the risk of losing 120 or more chips is very high. No reason this early to gamble. The turn is a Diamond (a 2 of any other suit couldn't possibly help Villain and he would have checked). The bet here tells me that he at least has AdXd and wants a smaller Ace to bet. He is well ahead with any ace in his mind, and now has 9 additional outs to hit a flush. Hero doesn't improve, nor does he pick up any way to improve on the river. Fold to the t60 and move on.

Re: 100% standard AJ raptor hand from sb.. in the 55s at least..
btw I never feel like I should respond to these threads as I have already discussed the hand but my basic view is that you must check raise the flop or call and bet out the turn. I have not yet been convinced otherwise by Rap (nor have I been torn a "new one", perhaps that is reserved for irie [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img])

against that mini bet I would probably checkraise the flop. You're usually ahead here, and $55 donkeys are still calling a checkraise with hands a lot weaker than AJ here. [/ QUOTE ] It kinds of sucks when you get called and you are now out of position on the turn in a biggish pot. Damn. edit: Actually, you can make a decent c/r and the pot doesn't have to get *that* big. But what's your plan when you get called?
