Teach me how to play KK
OK, live game last night at the ol' Foxwoods 1-2 NL game.
I'm going to post 2 hands in which our hero gets dealt the pretty K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] and either makes horrendous plays or heroic Daniel Negraneu type reads. Not sure which is which. Here's the first one: Hand 1: earlier in the night, the villain in MP has a nice stack of close to 1000$, I have roughly 300$. I raise to 15$ in EP with KK, villain deliberates and makes it 75 dollars. That's 60 more to me. He has been playing verrrry LAG up to this point, but I hadn't seen a PF raise of this magnitude yet. What to do? Hero deliberates and calls 60 dollars. Flop: Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Hero (???) checks. Villain bets all in for hero's remaining 225. Hero ???? |

Re: Teach me how to play KK
yep, auto call. it's imaginable that villain would push it in with a worse hand in a $150 pot, hoping to knock you off a pair < QQ. Besides, you're playing live- villain must be an idiot.

Re: Teach me how to play KK
What else can villain play this way besides AA, KK (statistically unlikely), or QQ (unlikely based on flop play)?

Re: Teach me how to play KK
I get the impression from certain posts I have read that a good LAG player wont easily make a pot so big without a hand and/or atleast a good read on YOU, to back it up. Hes got a large stack atleast hinting hes not bad, so why is this such an immediate call?
BTW this is not a challenge its 100% a question. I don't yet have a real opinion. |
