Don't 3bet the flop and it looks like a chop atm so just check.

yeah i dont 3bet flop either. but i disagree about checking. if we think its a chop why not just shove and maybe make him think about folding. obv hes probably not for half pot but why not

i usually don't raise preflop with A2-A7 even if first to act. If i get one caller and an ace hits the flop, i probably am dominated. What u think?

That's pretty standard TAG isn't it? I don't open up anything under AJ unless I'm on the button or cutoff.

I'm pretty sure hero is crushed here, I doubt button called with a weaker race versus UTG.

well i don't think he is crushed. if the villan had a full house he would definitely flat call. the only hand he can be afraid is AK, the rest of the aces is probably a tie.

.. or has other stupid hand he can't let go like KK or JJ.. as there's only one ace left in the deck i would go for that

raising out of the blinds with Axo = hole in bankroll.

especially against an unknown. I could only make an argument for villians that you have good stats on and know will fold to C-Bets a high % of the time.

I wouldn't 3 bet flop. Who knows, maybe he is a total donk and you are ahead.

Yeah but isn't it the case that the Ace rag is probly a favourite against the button's limp? Surely if he had a good hand he would've raised?
