Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
Use this thread if you have a potentially standard question, a line check, some other nonsense that is not threadworthy.
Spoiler:
Please, when answering a post, quote the hand and give your answer. For instance: Hi, I was in a really deep 1/2 game last night and it was full of brilliant tags who were excellent hand readers. They were a bit bluffy though. I had c. $2,000--villains covered. PF, utg raises to $24, MP2 makes it $48 to go, CO 4 bets for $350. I look down and see 72o. What should I do here? |

Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
2 limps by reasonable white 30somethings, a bit loose, but not out of control. 35yo whitey who has been getting hit in the face with the deck since he sat down 30 minutes ago (c. $800) makes it $16. (He has just gotten QQ and KK in last 2 hands and has been raising very frequently). I ($600) call in CO with Q:diamond:J:diamond:, button ($400 slightly scared money, white 34) calls, BB and 2 limpers come along.
6 players ($96) 2:diamond:9:spade:K:diamond: Checked to me, I check, Button bets $35, folded to PFR who makes it $75, I ... It seems like a push only, but wanted to see if there is any merit in calling and seeing the turn. |

Of course if you think they are going bat poo crazy with the Nut FD and you think you have FE... Then a big raise may be in order. Guessing this is 2/5? |

Blank hits turn (6c?) and PFR leads for $130 in c. $319 pot. These seem like weak bets to me--like villain wants to protect his pair. With $459 in pot with $130 to call (gettin better than 3:1, it is an easy call with the gutshot and flush outs. This will also leave me with about $370 behind. Button looks like he is folding. What is a good turn play? Game is 1/3 |
Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
Whats his range OTT? Whats his folding range now?

Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
I put him on AK, AA, Nut Flush draw. I discounted KK and other sets. I had been playing extremely tight since he joined table and had not gotten involved once. This makes my call look pretty strong on the flop and I did tank a bit. When he bet $130 (< 1/2 pot), I was thinking AK or nut flush draw. (It felt like a pair fwiw)
I guess the question here was will this guy fold AK or AA to an overbet raise? He hadn't made any big laydowns that I know of since his hand had been the boss everytime lots of chips went in. |

OP - Our hand OTT hinges on FE IMO. If we can't get him to fold out the bottom of his range if we shove then its real close to a fold. However, if you think V can fold those hands then we can shove and probably feel good about it. I don't know the particulars of the math, hopefully someone else can come in and do dat. |

Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
I disagree with the norm. Its a clear fold aka trap draw. Everytime a spot comes up like this. Ask yourself are my outs clean? do I have a draw to the nuts?
If any one of those question's is a no. Then folding is the more aggressive play. |
Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
2/5
7 handed, UTG limps. Seen him limp a few times in the last 3 orbits. I am fairly new to the table, been here for 20 minutes and action is going around fast due to SH play. SB looks weak and limps, Hero is in the BB with A:club:7:club: Are you guys raising here? I do and expect to be ahead of UTG limping range. |

Depends on effective stacks? I would just check your action.

Re: Not Quite Threadworthy--Low Stress Strat Questions
If he's raising top 5% hands and limping the next 25% of hands, you're a 53/47 favorite playing oop. Unless you think having position doesn't matter, you're not in a value situation.
I can see raising as a bluff if his limping range is wide and his calling/raising range is tight. |

@ pay for my school
A:club:7:club: isnt that great of a hand to raise with, against a unknown i would check. A7s plays pretty well postflop as well. If you have a edge postflop why not use it? 100bb isnt super deep to get too much in pre. If you raise, how much fold equity do you have? |
