AQ hearts in the BB vs. Sully of Godsmack
I was sweating a friend last night in $100 rebuy MTT. My buddy is a solid NL ring game player without a lot of experience at MTTs, but has a solid table image. The villian in this hand is actually Sully from Godsmack who plays regularly at this weekly charity tournament. He limps into a lot of pots, but if he raises preflop usually has a solid hand.
Blinds 200-400 Villian in MP w/ T8,000 Hero T7200 in BB Villian open-raises to 1200, Hero calls with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] . Flop is 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 10[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Re: AQ hearts in the BB vs. Sully of Godsmack
You really must define what you mean by "when he raises he has a solid hand." Does that include AJ? KQ? KJ? JTs? A9o? Pocket 6's? The answer to that dictates the flop play.
If he has a very narrow range of raising hands preflop, our flop decision is easier and we probably should not have called preflop in the first place. If he only raises with AA-88, AK, and AQ, we should not call preflop. Going to the flop we beat 88,99,JJ and AK, and tie with AQ. Therefore, we are behind more often than not since TT,QQ,KK,AA and A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] beats us. Also, the implied odds that we may get when we see a flop like this and he has one of those hands that we do beat are dependant on whether he bets any of them on this flop. Does he usually continuation bet when checked to if he had a hand like 77 here?

Re: AQ hearts in the BB vs. Sully of Godsmack
Then you should fold preflop. You beat only one of those! Why go into a hand with the worst of it?
On the flop, what possible hands would he fold here? 99 and JJ perhaps or AK/AJ w/o a diamond. The majority of the time you will be raised, so you check-fold and don't call his preflop raise in the future w/o a REAL hand.
