Super Tuesday early AK hand against very active player.

[gobboboy]

He's been playing 3 pots or so an orbit and has been basically breakeven. My image is standard gobbo, meaning people think I am more crazy than I am. Time for a multi part hand!

call

edit: unless he's bad.

And I forgot this is like the new MTT talk a lot forum.

You shouldn't 3bet too often here at all, especially with a hand like AK. Your perceived reraising range will be ultra tight, even w/ a gobboimage. Because of this you should tend not to be repopping w/ hands at the bottom of your perceived reraising range.

Okay, that one was pretty easy and I won't make more people all say call.

It has become interesting. What's your action and your plan for the hand?

[DerrtySlime]

on the flop?

[djk123]

I like calling the flop. I think raising lets him get away too easily from his TT-KK hands.

because we're somehow getting value from it on this dry ass board on later streets?!

[Clayton]

against a loosey player like this i am apt to raise/call about 75/25 here, as I think u extract the most value raising the flop, checking the turn, and betting or calling river as opposed to just flatting, maybe only getting one bet in, and having a harder time seeing where ur at to better get value our of ur hand.

that said, early on in a higher buyin tournament i think ppl overvalue staying in and not busting in the first few orbits on a stupid hand, so i think we can safely fold to a flop 3bet, and on the same token we can usually check behind most turns if he flats.

Call flop, this is so easy
