Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

I limp pre, o/w flop is fine, you're ahead of a bunch of draws and weaker Qs

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

i make it 100 pre and othewise play it the same.

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

Nice hand, sir!

Without reads I would play it exactly the same (maybe bet a little more on the flop). [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

Agree with niggel that the flop needs to be bet harder

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

Rodolphe, I think you might find it a bit easier if you just folded AQ early. I'm not giving that as general advice (don't want AMT getting the nit spray out for me), but I think you have shown that you are struggling with it postflop. Failing that, just limp and look to get away from it if you're not confident you're ahead.

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

Be careful Drzen, don't upset the powers to be. And thanks for the advice. Oh yeah, I would fold PF also.

Instafold. I hate AQ.

lol.

Well it is a good consideration; if you dont know how to play it postflop, better to fold it preflop.

as for the hand, limping or raising are both fine pf IMO. As played I'm just not gonna fold on this board at a 16 without some reads, this board is ridiculously drawy and he takes this line vs the PFR with worse queens for value also as ive seen previously at this level...go with it and make a note.

edit: i agree you can bet more on the flop, and itll also make it easier to stack off happily (or unhappily, did he river you? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img])

Re: 16$ : AQo early
 

Yes He rivers me (he had Kd 6d).
I'm not a good player but is it a good idea to play this hand (AQ) and post if I'm not confident the way I played it ?
If I never play it, I will never know how to play it no ?
