Re: Play along in the small blind
not to be a dick, but this hand (which i haven't read) sounds already like it's much more applicable to micros than it is small and up. starting with an openlimp on the button. that's horrible. your hand is favorable to his range of cards, and certainly better than random. i think this is a remarkably easy raise. with a few more limpers, say, an unknown open limps MP1 and a tag limps behind in the hijack and now chumpy mchumperson limps on the button i'm fine just limping because you don't have a great multiway hand and you're out of position the rest of the way.
so we still have only the open limper and you hold Q9s (or A5s). first off, what kind of loose passives are these? always peel to the flop, and call with any piece on the turn, regardless? or will they fold the flop without a piece when you raise? will they showdown less than A high? with either hand i'm more likely to limp along, as any postflop calls they make are less likely to be correct, and how passive versus how loose the button is. i.e.: does he only raise premium holdings but is not that loose? in which case you shouldn't be raising these marginal hands as they may not be significantly better, if any better at all, than what villain is holding. but really, it comes down to how capable you are of pushing these guys off hands with outs against you (say, when you miss entirely). |

Re: Play along in the small blind
I raise. Against more opponents I would lean towards calling, which may be a fundamental flaw in my game. But here even if I know big blind will call anything I value raise preflop.

Turn
Okay so the flop is pretty boring we prob have the best hand and bet.
Flop: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]6 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Hero bets, BB folds and button calls. Turn(2 players 4bb): 7 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Hero? Does this change if BB had called and it wasn't heads up. |

Re: Turn
bet again. villain could easily be calling with overs. If it was still three way I might consider checking unless both villians were LPs.

Re: Turn
i'd still be betting because i'm still pretty certain i have the best hand. since it's headsup, and i think i'm still ahead... yeah, bet again.

Re: Turn
probably. a lot would depend on how frequently i'd played short-handed pots with these guys. since they're donks and it's unlikely, yeah, another bet smells g00t.
