AQ IP 1/2 Foxwoods - Page 2 - Live Low-stakes No Limit Poker Forum

Thank you guys..

do we not want to play AQs IP post flop? I felt like at the time a bet of 25 or 30 would simply take down 12 dollars and Polarize my range and make me vulnerable to a LAG that is prepping to meta me on wet boards that miss AQ.

KK/AA make it 30 here?

This is absolutely terrible thinking. Focus on getting maximum value on this hand ahead of any other considerations. Making $15 with AQ without a flop is not a disaster. Not that we in anyway size a raise to get folds so if you think everybody does fold for more then it is fine IMO but from expreience we can get more.

Flop raise is fine, guys determined to show how much cash the have are often total spewtards.

If we have 56hh is it a good spot to bluff raise?

More scared of the club to kill our action than worried about him having a flush.

Also, when I see a player come in who is acting kind of above the game, they are usually not trying to get bullied out of the pot, I dont see a problem raising here at all.

We should never be putting villain on AK here also, that is the absolute top of his range for whatever reason not 3betting a straddle pot preflop, even if OOP.

This could just have easily been A7, and a club peels off on the turn and dont get stacks in because we didnt raise on the flop.

Lets say he has AJ, or A10, we are never getting more than 2 streets of value unless he two pairs up IMO.

We are not going to get anymore value if we raise the flop. V comes out and nearly pots it. He likes his hand. He is going to follow up with a 2nd barrel here.

His range is likely AJ/ATs here. I can't see him having AK as I think he 3b pf. But like I said, he is not a top player so he could just flat AK pre.

This is the first time that I have played with a known V, so I know his game a little bit better.

Raise to $145. Should commit villain. Jam any safe turn. Re-evaluate if scare card comes.

Also, as has been stated. I am definitely flatting otf. I am assuming your thought process to raise was to not let a club draw peel? Why not at this price. If you really feel like he's got clubs and one hits on the turn are you folding to any bet?? In all seriousness this feels like Ax where x<8. If you just flat he may shut down ott anyway but might call 1 more street from you. Just feels like we played this hand for minimum value/scared.

Im not going to lie. I run bad. and tend to play ROT and very scared, it's a huge leak that I am working on

stacks are awkward, pretty tricky to choose right sizing. I was tempted to make smaller raise but it wont induce anything given stacks so your sizing is fine and he did not fold AK lol.

raise more pre
