1. Check flop. Fold to bet. 2. Chech turn. Fold to bet. 3. Bet turn, 3-bet if raised. 4. Bet turn, fold if raised. 5. Bet turn. Bet river. 6. Bet turn. Check-fold river. 7. Bet turn. Check-call river. ...and so on. Pust. So many possibilities. But no 1 is not a bad choice. [/ QUOTE ] What's the point of raising if we're just gonna be check-folding every flop where we don't have the nuts? Are you seriously this weak-tight? |

[ QUOTE ]
checking the turn also lets villain play correctly, taking a free card when drawing, checking with a worse hand, etc. I'd much rather bet & get raised and decide what to do than offer villain the chance to play good by my poor play. [/ QUOTE ] Ive always hated that argument wackjob, I dont play with people who play correctly. Thats not how I make money at poker. The reason why I advocate checking and calling this turn is precisely becuz I believe this guy wont play correctly. |

I play it the same vs an agressive villain.

What did he call with? You flop second pair with A on board. The pot is small. So you have many different choices when you proceed. I might play this even with a reraise at all streets if my read say me to do it. Normaly, a flat call from button preflop indicate power. To give it up right there is not a bad play if your read dont tell you anything else. If I play weak-tight? Ask my opponents, you have a bunch of them in this forum. To be weak-tight are many times the right play. |

Re: Spewing with ace on board?
Is he only going to call preflop with an Ace? [Villain is 42/20/2.5] i don't think so.
If he is not, then the Ace might scare him, so BET the flop. He could have ATC. Edit: OP I like how you played it. |

Hi This is a 5 handed, 3-6 Absolute game. Villain is 42/20/2.5 after 50 hands [/ QUOTE ] 42/20 guys don't coldcall with powerful hands, they reraise. If his coldcall indicates anything it's that he has a hand like JTs, or a low PP. Also, what kind of a read are you talking about where you would reraise every street in this hand? |

Usually you have been playing with your opponent some times before so you know more precisely what to do; his impression of you is quite important. If he think you are weak-tight; maybe you have been folding recently to raises and so on. Then he might want to take a shot on you. In that case, check-call him down is a good play. But with out any particular reads, to play this hand weak is not a bad idea. |
