I am - I think winning it is irrelevant though. I prefer going out in style...

Me the second place gets money too right? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
On a side note I'm clearing a bonus on the empire poker $5 tables, and I'm getting slaughtered by a 96vpip/4pfr/0.54AF (that is over a 100hand sample). He is up 3 buyins now....

Gotta love these, the best part about it is that it has become standard to the point where I don't care anymore, and reload until they have left.

Fold AQ to the 3-bet by the button b/c

a) You're OOP
b) Many times you are totally dominated (like this hand) and it's gonna be very hard to extract chips from JJ, QQ, KK if an A hits the flop.

I just registered last night. Only three of us so far at that point. I think that may be as close to the money as I'm ever going to get... Poker Gods always mock me when I play in private/podcast tourneys...

But yeah, I'm looking forward to the micro donkament... Surely there will be some side games afterwards that might be even more entertaining...

Generally, this is correct but this specific villain as 3bet me with a wide range of hands/trash which have been showndown. So I thought that I would be ahead of the majority of his range here.

jonyy6788 · #**459** 11-14-2006, 02:39 PM

Still needs to be folded....what good is it to play a LAG OOP. Most people like that are rarely gonna pay you off! They make you think they're horrible by raising garbage and then all of a sudden you wake up with AQ and think its a monster. If you're gonna call his 3-bets preflop with AQ OOP you might as well leave the table or keep reloading. How many times are you gonna hit the flop with AQ and then be able to extract from him if he has nothing? Rarely. How many times are you gonna miss...A LOT and then you check/fold and you just wasted $6 a huge % of the time. The only hands you beat are Ax and KQ, JQ, etc. Long-term is you play AQ off against a LAG you're gonna get destroyed b/c you can't extract much when you hit and you're gonna get taken to the woodshed when he has a hand.

Sorry this is a really long post, but there's no solid way to play a LAG when you're OOP.

If you really thought you were ahead of his range, then reraise the donkey.

Remember the key to poker is to maximize their mistakes and minimize yours!
