Default Re: 25NL 6m- Lost with AQ

Any read on the other players? Are they both call stations? Is either an aggressive player that a call on the flop, instead of a raise, would make you suspicious?

It all depends on a read you have on the other players and what type of image you have at the table.

Even if you haven't played enough hands with them to get a read or establish an image, I still probably bet the turn. A lot of players at the 25NL level will pay you off with a hand like A6o. Plus, you do have TP with a good kicker and you are establishing an aggressive image. By checking the turn you are asking the CO to take your money.

And, I'm raising to $1.25 here pre-flop. AK, AA, KK, and QQ are going to re-raise you if someone is holding them behind you. A bigger pre-flop raise will usually get out the A4o you may be up against here.

I hear what your saying about betting the turn, but read the hand again and I think you'll see your pre-flop advice doesn't make a lotta sense.
