Simple pre-flop question
Hero: $53
Villain: $52 (15.4/15.4/?) .10/.25 blinds You have 88 on the button, everyone folds to you. You raise it to $1. Villain on the SB makes it $4. Do you let go right there? |

Re: Simple pre-flop question
Hmm folding kinda makes you too easy to 3 bet off of button steals. If your opening a (presumably) large range on the button but are folding to 3 bets with hands as strong as 88 it seems your going to end up getting 3 bet quite a lot.
Plus if villain has a pretty tight range here I dont think calling for set value is too awful |

Re: Simple pre-flop question
in situations like this i like to raise on occasion to narrow my range.
this is just one of those hands that are tricky to play in that situation... i couldnt say that there is one great way to play them tag... i would fold.. or smooth call lag.... raise pre and flop tight passive.. call... |

Re: Simple pre-flop question
i'd fold 88 here unless someone has developed a pattern of 3 betting me or stacks are a little deeper. if someone is doing it a lot, i might 4bet them with whatever, but i still dong like calling with a hand like 88 with 100b stacks. i'd rather do it with something that hits more flops, and makes more use of my position.

Re: Simple pre-flop question
Are you guys leveling? How's this not an instacall given stacks, position & range of villain, for set value alone?

Re: Simple pre-flop question
i misread. i was thinking nl50 when i looked at the stack sizes, and didn't realise it was 200b deep

Re: Simple pre-flop question
if he has a tight 3bet range then you have enough implied odds to set mine. if he is looser I would still call and play back on a lot of flops.
folding here is super weak. |
