I fold this preflop in a heartbeat. But, I am a donk.

[/ QUOTE ]no its not, it has no suitedness, and is only marginally strong in regards to high card. I would hate to limp with this and have to call a raise. Easily dominated hand, unless you hit TP with the T. He got a decent flop, but thats because God was looking down on him and noticed his poor preflop play. Fold this PF, and forget about the flop. |

I'll raise ATo UTG on certain .50/1 tables that are playing more weak/tight than usual. In 30,000 hands I've raised ATo UTG 10 times, winning 6 times for a BB/hand of 1.63. The BB/hand would have been twice that but a guy called my flopped trip aces all the way with 99 and hit a 9 on the river.
So I think it's a good play on the weaker tables especially if they're starting to respect your raises a little too much. |

I don't play AT offsuit from that position either, and my vpip is 19%, so I don't think you will be missing much by playing this hand UTG. I would rather play A2 suited than AT offsuit from that position. Offsuit hands suck when out of position, especially in multi-way pots. I fold KJ offsuit as well.
Post-flop looks fine. Agianst a LAG I don't mind going into check call mode on the turn and river. Kind of odd that MP2 didn't bet the turn though, most LAGs would bet here. |

ATo is only -.07EV for the avreage player over a large number of hands (see Pokerroom db). Since the average includes both good and bad players, it is a reasonable assumption that good postflop players will find ATo +EV to play.
EDIT: EV value is for early position. |

ATo is not a universal fold from UTG, but I usually do. In the cases where I don't fold UTG, I'm opening for a raise. I will never openlimp with ATo - in any position.

Limping ATo at .5/1 is not as horrible as everyone makes it out to be. I very rarely do it personally, but Shill had a post here awhile back that if you're raising AJo UTG, how bad could playing ATo be?
