66 in big blind versus a couple LAGs
HJ is 44.4/28.9/1.33, CO is 42.6/21.3/1.8, both are spewy and bad.
Absolute Poker Limit Holdem Ring game Limit: $25/$50 6 players Converter Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">UTG+1 raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO 3-bets</font>, 2 folds, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls. Anyone want to talk me into capping or folding? Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (9.6SB, 3 players) Hero checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#cc0000">CO bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, UTG+1 folds, CO calls. This is why I like calling, I manage to fold out HJ. Turn: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (6.8BB, 2 players) Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">CO bets</font>, Hero calls. A lot of the time, Villain is going to have an A here. But these LAGs are the type to barrel KQ when they don't. Anyone want to bet/fold? Bet/call? Check/fold? River: J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (8.8BB, 2 players) Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">CO bets</font>, Hero calls. Um, I still beat KQ. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] Anyone want to check/fold? Final pot: 10.8BB |

Re: 66 in big blind versus a couple LAGs
Preflop: I would fold.
Flop: Standard check/raise Turn: Standard check/call for me for the reasons youve stated. River: Standard check/call again for me vs this type of opponent. So I think you played postflop well. I still think folding preflop is better than calling but I have no way of proving that. |

Re: 66 in big blind versus a couple LAGs
I guess preflop is fine if both players are really bad and spewy. Against good players your implieds are not that great if you hit a set, because coldcalling from bb and going crazy on a ragged board is captain obvious...
but i'm not sure if i would call a river bet, villain must be really bad to barrel with nothing. and as you said, you really only beat KQs here. |

Pre-flop is close, so there's no rule there, but I would lean to a fold unless I was likely to score big when I flop well or, as happened, I believe I have a good chance of getting it HU on flop. |

[/ QUOTE ] i aint sure about post flop. maybe it depends on how bad they are. his pfr is reasonable, and we are calling down praying to beat kq (or perhaps q10 or k10)? |

Re: 66 in big blind versus a couple LAGs
This is exactly how I would play it. I understand some people want to fold preflop. I just can't. These people are horrible, how can I be expected to let go of a pair of sixes? Flop is perfect. Donking and getting raised by the first pfr can just open up a 3bet by the 3bettor. c/r may get someone out. River sucks, but the villain is still retarded and we still have a pair.

Re: 66 in big blind versus a couple LAGs
I thought about PF over lunch and I can really see an argument for a fold (this is coming from a guy who last folded his BB in '05).
Basically I'm going to convince myself to call down here pretty much every time regardless of the board texture. I'm going to be c/r'ing a lot flops and putting in a lot of "i don't know" money. That being said, that's what I do. And I do it a lot. If I'm sitting there and don't know much but these guys are laggy/bad then I'll play this hand the same. I'll call the river this time and try and see if he fires 3-barrels at any other point or if i feel he is catching on to my play, at which point I think this river is an easy fold. |
