Shoving pre isn't a big mistake if any. Shove flop, he has a pot sized stack.

2/3 pot, fold to aggression?
I sometimes check here, but usually only if I know villain will only tend to bet made hands...not just letting him take us off the overs he may suspect we have? We did 3-bet, however, so I hate checking, especially OOP...so let's find out if he likes his hand with a larger-than avg probe bet? -ZEN |

Re: 24+2: AK down to two tables.
I usually just shove pre, but this is a pretty sexy way to play it actually. Most of the time you have 25% equity if you're called (you would only need 33% equity to call if he shoved given his stack size), you take it down on the flop some of the time without making a hand and if you a flop a pair with A-K you get value out of worse hands sometimes. Of course shoving pre gets it in as a huge favorite against A-Q some of the time, especially if he thinks you're not giving a CO raise much credit, but I definitely like the former (go-and-go?) if he's a tighter player.

I like shoving this pre because it widens our range. We could be doing it with a wide range of hands like 66+, AT+ or something like that therefore we get values our of worse hand. Just raising lets us get outdrawn on flop, but it also kind of simulates more strength since an observant opponent may view it as a strong move because we didn't shove. Having said this I would bet about 1/2 the pot, and I am in a rush so if we are not committed fold to a raise, if commited then obviously call.

I bet 140k... he shoved I obv called the 40+k.
He showed QTs, 8 on the turn, GG. As long as I didn't get a bunch of c/f' I don't mind the way I played this hand. In hind sight given his hand I guess shoving was best. But I think I would have strongly considered. Folding to a 4-bet. |
Re: 24+2: AK down to two tables.
Bet-folding this flop is very bad, so just bet enough to cover him.
edit: folding to 4 bet is bad too. These donks will 4 bet AQ and TT frequently enough that even if they never 4 bet light you have plenty of equity. |
