A high blind battle vs TAG

NinaWilliams · #1 08-08-2007, 01:05 PM

Villain is a 26/17 TAG. Seems to play pretty well, generally fastplays his hands, doesnt spew very much. Hes also villain in this hand, which was last hand.

eazy fold imo. turn 2 is a tougher question but you only beat air now.

I was going to edit my post, because I realized all straight draws hit a straight or pair on the turn.

I guess folding here is best, but if the turn is a 2, I don't think you can just fold.

What do you do if the turn is a 2 or or a broadway card?

after that first hand I would tend to muck but I really mix it up in this spot a lot (fold vs call/call vs call/fold). I wouldn't raise unless I hit.

Quick muck for me too. Blind battle not withstanding the first hand was only 4handed & he played it like a wuss imo.

the guy c/c the flop witht he nuts because he didn't want you to fold .

Now, he c/r you, he is asking you to fold.

Thats why I might call down, but that turn card is a killer

Reluctant fold in hand 2. If the turn is just about anything else, I have a hard time not getting to SD.
