lol I'm going to get some free advice, because I think you give good advice [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Muck this crap? - I did in this case.

I used to limp [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Raise it? - if so what's the plan for the hand...

1) If re-raised PF = fold?

If you missed the flop out of position

do you lead out c-bet it or check/raise or check/fold?

OESD on flop - what's your line? = Check/raise all-in?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t100 (7 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

Hero (t1720)
UTG+1 (t3150)
MP1 (t1405)
CO (t330)
Button (t1140)
SB (t1880)
BB (t3875)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Flop: (t300) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (3 players)

I fold this hand. I know of some v good posters who may disagree.

My biggest problem with AJ is it's mainly only good for stealing the blinds and getting HU as an allin hand. It's very difficult to extract value postflop with it as AK and AQ rape you a ton more than you rape AT/A9/A8. It really only extracts value from pps when the J comes.

So, I am not thrilled about being called in one, two, or three spots (all very possible being utg on a random table). I don't expect to steal the blinds enough here since most ppl have no clue about position anyway and I also can't stand an allin raise without a decent read.

If I have AQ here I likely raise b/c of it's better properties vs. calling ranges postflop. I raise 99 here too but think I fold 88 (again due to postflop stuff also). Oh all of these hands handle calling an allin much better if you decide your opponent is being quite aggro.

I never limp this hand here that is not the way to play it.

Your HH is all weird....looks like you folded preflop which would make this hand very difficult to play. Or the flop pot is 400 (you, utg+1, sb, bb) and utg bets lets say 100 in that situation after you've *all* checked.

I'm liable to make a raise to maybe t700 (pot is t600 at this point and potting it would be 800). This also allows for me to bet 1/2 the rest of my stack on the turn and river in order to get allin and induce calling since the bets are so weak compared to the pot size.

The betting patterns indicate you likely won't get action but also won't get paid off by slow playing. Also that board allows a lot of 2pr that others could be slowplaying or other nonsense that will go all the way with you here.

Okay I can't see any chicks.....the only chick below I see is my pic of Laetitia Casta.

The answer would be "yes." But I cannot guarantee anything for her as I have never met her in person.

It's entirely possible she could be way too negative and sux at life and I'd just go hang out with someone else instead.

Actually, yeah I'd still hit it at least for a bit....it'd be pretty cool even if I had to put up with stuff I didn't really want to at the time.

How stupid is it to build a swing set in 100 degree heat?

Not as dumb as building one when it's 106..... Been there, done that. Be sure to wear gloves and have lots of cold beer at hand. Good luck with that, bro. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
