I guess by posting this, I would say it is a call because I can't really put him on the Ad and if he has a hand that doesn't contain the Ad, I am around even money or better.

[kyro]

nick, what percent of the time do you think he has AdK? I'd call here, but I bet it's around 10-20%.

Of course the actual hands could be a much wider range. I haven't played a $215, but I have seen some shocking hands posted.

BUT, do you think 88 or 99 makes that preflop raise?

You can never discount anything on PartyPoker, people can do crazy things.

At a $55

I raise to 50 PF, one guy calls. Flop is AKx, I bet 100, he minraises me, I push, he calls. He shows KQ.

I have no idea what you are talking about [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

[citanul]

i think that the flop call is probably fine, to clarify my earlier post, the debatable part of this hand (or at least more debatable) is the preflop action. i just would think that the hands that your opponent is going to have are slanted heavilly to AK, AA, KK, QQ. on the flop your opponent plays strangely for any of those hands except for AK, which helps make this an easier play. in particular he's more likely to have AK and QQ out of those 4 hands after his flop push, i would assume. but yeah, the preflop action is the action i find to have discussion.

I have definitely folded AK preflop in similar situations, but Im not going to criticize someone too much for calling. If an ace comes, you have decent chance of winning all their chips because some people are simply incapable of ever folding KK+QQ after the flop headsup

I was the guy saying that he should at least contemplate a fold. He has a hard time flopping a good hand and sometimes when the opp has a big pair and you "get there" you're starting another tourney soon. I know I have never folded it but to not consider it would be not good.

[curtains]

I suspect that he did consider folding.

but very few solid players will have the above stats and solid players are going to reraise here with stronger hands on average than worse players.
