AA under pressure HU
first hand at this table
Party Poker Blinds: $1/$2 9 players Converter Stack sizes: UTG: $184.30 UTG+1: $244 MP1: $116.55 MP2: $112.19 MP3: $36.81 CO: $106.60 Button: $203.05 SB: $138.70 Hero: $200 Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5 folds, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $8</font>, CO calls, SB folds. Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($18, 2 players) <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $12</font>, CO calls. Turn: 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($42, 2 players) <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $20</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to $40</font> tough decision here. if i'm behind i don't have many outs. if i just call here i'll probably have to call a bigger bet on the river. if i 3bet i'll allow him to fold worse hands and call with better ones. i can't really put him on a set here, the only thing i beat is AJ with As or J9. can i really put him on trip 5's or the flush here? (1) minraise is a sign of strength (2) feels too weak to fold here with overpair HU getting 5-1 immediate (3) checking turn doesn't feel right either help? |

Re: AA under pressure HU
He either has you crushed or he has a Jack and wants a cheap river showdown. I'd call his minraise and probably fold to a river push.

[/ QUOTE ] Jx X[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] is about the only possibility I can imagine doing this. These are tough situations cause the odds are so attractive. The 5 sucks as a paired card though cause if he's got JJ or 99 you're smoked to two outs, not four vs. the flush. I probably call and would call a small river bet, but if he bets big then you're pretty much done for. Spike an Ace on the river so that none of this matters... - C - |

Re: AA under pressure HU
I have not read the thread or replies but the correct answer is push or call, whichever is applicable.
Edit: I read the thread, title misleading. Call. |

Re: AA under pressure HU
Am I wrong in thinking this turn bet should have been for more, therefore making our turn decision easier?
Also on this board maybe the flop bet should be a little bigger too? |

thanks for the responses guys
i think the turn odds are just too attractive to fold right there with such a strong hand HU, even though the board and the minraise suggest that i am way behind and have few outs i called the turn bet, planning to reevaluate on the river. river brought the Ks so the board is now J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]k [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] i checked and folded to his all in |
