Default Mini Blind A2s Hand

Hi guys,

For those who don't know, UB has special tables with mini blinds. The blinds in these games are 1/2 the size of the small bet, but preflop raises are a full small bet added to the size of the "big" blind. Then postflop action will be "regular" sized.

Anyways, this table just started up so I have no reads on anybody yet.

UB 8/16 with 2/4 blinds.

UTG+1 limps. I limp in MP with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Button limps. SB completes. bb checks.

Flop: 2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players, ~2.5sb)

SB checks. BB checks. UTG+1 checks. I check. Button checks.

Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (5 players, ~1.25bb)

SB checks. BB checks. UTG+1 bets. I call. Button calls. SB folds. BB folds.

River: 8 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 players, ~4.25bb)

UTG+1 checks. I bet. Button calls. UTG+1 raises. I fold.

All comments welcome,

Are you serious? I think the flop and turn both suck.

I don't know. I'm no super pro but it sure looks to me like this is a good time to slowplay.

There's really no reason not to bet the flop. People like to call.

on the turn, there's a picked up flush draw and a straight draw. MAYBE they'll fold a straight draw, but no way will online idiots fold a flush draw no matter how small the pot and its likely nobody will fold an 8 or a 7 either. trust me. thats why i'm a super pro.
