Re: ($27) First Hand AQ - Too Much Action
I'm not sure why you are calling preflop. I guess I'd be slightly more ok if it was sooted, but even then, you're behind utg+1's range by quite a bit. If villain is competent, the worst hand he's raising is AQo or TT, possibly 99, though I think he'd limp. Most here are raising JJ+, AKo, and maybe AQo or AQs. I just don't see how you're ahead here. So either he's a bluffing idiot, or he's a donk with KK, much less likely QQ, and also less likely, a donk with the KQ of hearts, or the dumbest villain in the world and he has AT-- once he calls the flop raise, the likely hand here that you beat is a donk that can't let go of KK, though I think I just played the same hand with an ATo utg raiser, but I digress. TT folds to your flop raise. FWIW, my roi went up when I stopped calling raises with AQo from mid position-- you will have to dump it to a raise behind anyway, and whatever happens on the flop you are gonna be squeezed between the preflop aggressor and whoever calls behind you. So what happens when he leads, you raise, and then get action from the player who called behind you? I think you're much better off dumping this preflop unless you have a sick read on utg+1. I'm real worried about JJ here, as even a donk may lead out here, knowing there is a great chance of you having an A. I guess thats a lot of words to say fold preflop. With the call, I'm wondering if there is any merit to flatting the flop to keep pot small, even with the flush draw. I'm guessing no.

Re: ($27) First Hand AQ - Too Much Action
Doesn't the preflop call depend on WHO was the UTG+1 raiser ? I will almost always call here (in a $27) if UTG+1 has a seriously negative "fishbowl" ROI on Sharkscope (which also why I will move off Pokerstars if they stop me from using it). The exception may be based on who is behind me (if there is a psycho who is almost guaranteed to squeeze with re-raise).
Of course I tend to play it a bit on the cautious side here post flop however. I don't see anything significantly wrong with your play, except that you could fold pre-flop if UTG+1 is a good opponent. |
