AK vs pf raiser and pf capper

Disconnected · #1 10-27-2005, 04:29 PM

The capper hadn't capped, but had made some pretty light raises. He's a LAG pre-flop, neutral post-flop. The original raiser hadn't been at the table too long, but for what it's worth is LAGgy preflop and aggressive postflop -- but I hadn't noted him getting really out of line. I on the other hand, had been probably too LAGgy postflop. I'm not sure if the capper noticed or if the raiser had been around long enough to get a read on me.

Hero bets. You have the best hand here a huge majority of the time.

I'd probably go for a checkraise.

No doubt my equity here is huge. The question is how to exploit it. I can see a bet or a checkraise, but it's got to be with the idea of building the pot.

Ay matey, but that not be the reason.

BB will bet this flop fairly often, and we can get more money in with what is likely the best hand.

Also, the CO may call one bet, but fold to 2 when the BB raises this flop a good majority of the time. Then when you checkraise both of them the CO will want to cry and may call again.

I feel like a check-raise lets BB get away from his QQ/JJ/etc on the turn, or even on the flop if it's checked to the CO. I'd rather have those pairs put in bets on the big streets when they're (hopefully) calling down and drawing thin.

I'm willing to believe I'm wrong here. You're in good position for the check-raise, so you might miss out on some value by passing that up. I just think you get more bets over the whole hand by leading out.
