Default Re: A6s

Huggs, none from three.

Preflop: You're getting 4:1, without thinking too much, I'm giving my hand at least it's 20% equity.

Flop: The number of AK-A7 hands he can have here is nothing compared to the KK-88, Kx, Qx and whatever other junk he could be raising there preflop. Being that he will c-bet this almost all the time, his bet doesn't define his hand and you are ahead more than you are behind.

If you call the flop bet, you are giving MP1 correct odds to call (correcly) with anything that has as few as 5 outs. i.e. any paired hand, and there are lots of them in his range. Not to mention the gutshots that can call (correcly) with implied odds.

If you raise the flop, MP1 needs more like 10 outs to call profitably and will make more incorrect calls with less than those outs.

I think the point is, on this flop, the pot is building and you want to do whatever you can to improve your chances of winning.

Turn: Someone already said, you can't let this get checked through.
