Correct play for 2 overcards
Maybe this is a FAQ, if so feel free to flame me.
I'm really struggling with this concept. Let's say you have AKo in CO and raise preflop and get maybe 3 callers, flop is all rags. What is correct play. Raising? Checking? C/R? I have tried various approaches and seem to loose money on all of them. |

Yes I suppose you are right. Sigh!
Basically as I play on the nano-tables most players are loose. FP% 35-60. You can almost never force anyone to fold with a bet so basically you are betting for value with 6 outs. But is that a sane approach? |

Betting for value with Ace high against multiple opponents? How likely is it that everyone missed the flop and your Ace high is still good?

I read a few of the posts you linked to and I agree that if you are in late position and get bet in to, you should raise. But if you are first to act with two overcards...ahh that is something else. |

Re: Correct play for 2 overcards
On a table with loose passive players you make more money not bluffing than bluffing. For sake of argument raising a ragged board with A high is bluffing. If you miss the flop and your c-bet is called by a bunch of people stop putting money in the pot UI. If there a lot of people in you may not even want to c-bet and c/c or c/f the turn depending. C/R with air or betting overcards into calling stations is a huge leak. Learn to fold A high.

[/ QUOTE ] I used to raise donk bets on ragged flops but stopped when I ended up folding too many of those hands to donk bets on the turn. Unless you have reads that someone will fold to flop aggression raising with A high on a flop that you've been donked into doesn't make much sense. Call and fold the turn UI. |

Re: Correct play for 2 overcards
OK. Thanks for advice. I'll try to study a bit more and reread SSHE and the forums. It is 01:03 here now so "Good Night Ladies...."
