Default 10/20 AKo gets lrr

Standard fare or no?

Villian is UTG and an unknown, but sat down about an orbit or two ago with 5bb. He hasn't done anything very noticeable but seems too loose and weak.

10/20 game, 8 handed. I am in MP with A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

UTG (villain) limps. fold. fold. I raise. folded back to villain who 3-bets. I cap.

Flop (2 ppl, 9sb)

A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Villain leads. I raise. He 3-bets and I cap. He calls.

Turn (8BB) J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

He bets. I call intending to call down.

Id love to bet my lifes-blood that the lucky hump showed you 3 4's in this particular hand BUT as far as you playing the hand, I think you went a bit overboard with the capping AND the raising the turn bet, while its awful important to maximize your good hands I see SO MANY PEOPLE TIME AND AGAIN overplaying those acesLet me ask you this, what do you think he has you on at this point? (the first cap)

Also, Im not the best with these notations yet, this is a full sized ring game is it?

I like calling down after the flop 3-bet. You've announced your hand. He could be a total nimrod, but I give him credit after the 3-bet.

In my experience, a lrr is virtually always a big PP. Especially from a weak player. In that case we are WA/WB here.

I would probably call down all the way from the flop, since I do not want him to fold a worse hand.

If I go for more aggression this would be mainly for metagame purposes, but against weak players there is less reason to disguise your play. And if the other players at the table think you are predictable that could be useful later.

I'd say there's not enough information. In a live game, you could lay it down most of the time. Online, I think you need to call down most of the time.

i would guess 44 but is AJ not a possibility also?

i would prob call down (crying) hoping to see A4s or big pair; he did sit down w/ 5bb's so maybe he's just assuming he's gonna be all in on the hand anyway
