Re: 10NL - Flopped set, value extraction OOP
 

I agree with you akak. How do you adjust your play in a table where opponents are still thinking absolute $, not relative, and they bet 2$ into a 13$ pot? If you bet 9$ which is still only 2/3P it seems so scary and high.

I am sure there are threads about this topic @ theory forum so I will do some searching there tonite.

First, this is a clear call preflop. Less than 5% of the effective stacks when you're on the button is a good call for a huge range of hands; defitely all PP, Axs, 54s+, 64s+, and even 87+ and 97+. Hell, even Kxs at a push.

Especially against an aggy opponent.


I like the line.


Also, you're kind of right about the transparency of the turn. Aggressive play on the flop usually means a draw or two pair (though sometimes a set etc), but aggressive on the turn usually telegraphs 'my hand beats TPTK' (and that usually means a set - or a bluff, obv).

But you can only be a certain level of agg on the flop, or people just fold when the pot's cheap.

Whatcha gonna do, eh?
