Re: 530 Floating a Mid Pair
Well Degen, I don't know what I can add, other than a little commentary.
Obviously this all depends on reads. At the levels, most of us play, this would be sucide against a solid regular. I could be pretty sure solid regular is only calling with TT+, AK here or some range very close to that. However, he is probably reraising QQ+, so it more like TT,JJ, AK. So, betting wouldn't accomplish anything other than getting AK to fold. There could be an argument for calling down here with 66.
That being said. How much does it differ at a $530? Is a solid regular much different? Ie, do they know you are capable of moves and be calling with a much larger range here? I still can beleive he's calling real wide, cause he's OOP which obviously means a lot when you are calling thin against an opponent who can be raising thin.
So, if you could clarify what a solid regular at the $530s is, and how that differs to say a $55/109 regular, that would be very helpful to me for various reasons.
I do agree that you have played this hand with a very strong line. You are telling your opponent that you have top pair beat here. This could be QQ+ or a set, so you are getting a lot of lay downs from a strong opponent here (if they were calling thin).
But my question still remains, how much different is he from a mid level regular?
