General strat - Tips on playing AJ?

Teddie · #1 08-09-2007, 08:52 PM

As soon as Villan turned over his hand it got me thinking, is there anyway he can get away from this? Would we fold the turn CRAI?

Do we fold pre-flop or 3bet it pf? I guess it depends on the raisers position, what position does the raise have to come from for us to 3bet it?

Obviously fold to more agression pre-flop and if he an Ace hits and he fires on two street we can probaly fold yea?

I'd like general opinions on this so answer how you play AJ at your level and not how you would play it at NL 10.

against nits i fold PF or check behind turn because >AJ isnt a big part of their range

Against good TAGS i would play it the same as villain, sometimes 3-bet PF.

Against LAGS 3-bet PF
