10NL: Fun with minraises
Probably standard as hell, but these spots make me feel uncomfortable and I just want to make sure.

Call and evaluate on the turn.

Re: 10NL: Fun with minraises
Evaluate what? This is an easy fold. There is no card on the turn that makes you feel any better in this hand except for the two sixes left in the deck. I highly doubt someone is going to minraise on this flop with a 3 or 22/44/55.

Re: 10NL: Fun with minraises
fold. This hand will only be more and more difficult on later streets, so dump it now while you still can.

Re: 10NL: Fun with minraises
Folding this hand here is really exploitable. People can just start minraising us with anything here and we will be folding 80%+ of our hands. How often are these minraises bluffs?
This might not be a big issue at microstakes, I'm not saying that folding is necessarily bad, I'm just throwing that out there. |

Re: 10NL: Fun with minraises
As a default play vs. unknowns, a fold here is OK because MOST villians will not do this without a very strong hand. If players start check-min raising all of your flops, fine, try to get to a showdown.
Also note that there will be times when you flop well and welcome a raise and that's what really keeps you from being exploitable; you won't be c-betting with air or a marginal way ahead/behind hand all the time. |

Re: 10NL: Fun with minraises
Ok, anything other than folding here is totally retarded.
a) Micro-donks don't min raise here without a hand very often here. Yes, it will happen, but most of the time we're 90/10 behind. b) We have no idea where we stand anyway c) There are a TON of turn cards that will make the situation more difficult d) We're OOP e) The pot isn't getting any smaller. If you want to get creative in a situation like this, at least do it in position. |
