Re: PLO8 $100: AA hand meets resistance on flop
I disagree completely with what is stated above. Would UTG+1 play a2 of spades any differently? He min raises preflop which more than likely means he has a2. He puts Hero on AA because of the reraise preflop, so he figures he can semi bluff and push Hero off his hand.
This hand is 50 50 to me. If I know this player to be a nut peddler, easy fold. But if I think this player has any aggressive tendencies at all, I push.
By folding here, you are conceding folding aces to anyone. Any paired board, someone raises you and you fold. This is classic weak tight in PLO8.
When I play, if I see someone how has obvious aces, I will push this board a high percentage of the time, ESPECIALLY, which A2 spades on a semi bluff. I call this a high percentage of the time.
You very rarely will be beat by the high and low.
Final read: player has Aspades 23 x.
Easy push.
