View Full Version : nl25--playing LAG, bad shove?

Sorry for the no HHs, I'm posting this on another computer.

25nl on Full Tilt. I play 32/26/4.5 and have around 1000 hands on the BB who plays 18/16/3.5. He seems decent and up until this session I had consistently run over him, but my last few open raises he had come over the top of me so I think he might know me as a LAG and could be 3 betting me light. The Button is a terrible player, plays like 50/3/1.

BB and I both have 27$ stacks, button has 10$.

UTG and MP both limp.
I make it $1.5 with AJs.
Button calls, BB raises to 7$.
Both limpers fold.

At this point it seemed like BB was trying to isolate and play a pot against the terrible button. I have yet to 4 bet or call any of the BBs 3 bets on me.

I think for 5 seconds and shove, my thought process being that BB is definitely capable of trying to take this down preflop with marginal holdings, and AJs is way ahead of button's calling range. I don't really mind a call from the button at this point and if he happens to fold I don't think BB is calling except with QQ+.

This is a weird hand. I don't like shoving AJs in this spot, but I don't think the shove is that awful given your read. I'd probably want at least AQ, or a less-dominated hand like 9Ts.

I expanded op's QQ+ range just slightly (I think it's a little too tight). Which actually brings the two hands closer together in terms of equity.
