AQ - quietly played
MP is unknown and BB is 50/1/.4
Is going for the overcall the right idea here? Party Poker 5/10 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP posts a blind of $5. <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP (poster) checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, MP calls. Flop: (6.40 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Hero calls, BB calls. Turn: (4.70 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font> BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, Hero calls, |

Re: AQ - quietly played
With the 2nd J falling on the turn, I'm raising. If either one has a J or K their staying, raising the J. Why let them go for the boat cheaply?

Re: AQ - quietly played
with the board pairing, and bringing 2 diamonds, this is a terrible spot for an overcall.
Even if the turn brought a rag, I would raise expecting BB to call with any A or any Q (or probably any hand he would call one bet with), where he would likely fold the river when he missed. |

Re: AQ - quietly played
I raise the flop because I hate slowplaying. Especially with a broadway straight. Everyone's got a piece of the board that they're willing to pay with, and two pair hands might 3-bet you.
Given how you played it, definitely raise the turn. |

Re: AQ - quietly played
The overall nets you 1BB. I'd rather raise the turn and pick up the 1BB from the MP and maybe 2BB if the big blidn picked up a draw he can't refuse (e.g. trips or a diamond draw).
If you had the nut straight with 1 card (e.g. 4 to the straight on the board), the overall makes more as a raise is just going to get you HU with someone you might very well split the pot with. |

Re: AQ - quietly played
Play this hand hard and fast.
Your hand is very strong and not afraid of a lot of action. The board is dangerous which means lots of hands are eager to draw or showdown. Two very good reasons for putting your foot to the floor. |

Re: AQ - quietly played
I agree with them. There are too many hands that are drawing very live to just call here. Gotta charge them. hell, AJ might even 3bet you.

Re: AQ - quietly played
I was probably a bit too anxious to keep them in here, thinking that MP might just be donking around, and BB would call one bet with all sorts of marginal hands.
[ QUOTE ] AJ might even 3bet you. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, and so might Q9 (which was what he had). Just wanted to make sure, that I suck. |

It probably would've gotten to a 3-bet on the turn before he slowed down. Or he woulda just called the flop and c/r'd the turn. Either way, mad $$$, yo. |
