yyou need to 4bet his min 3bet. I hate the flat call. You have great equity and need to put more in now.
Make it about 6. as for folding to a shove. you dont have enough behind to do that. So all in preflop. on the flop you are just making up for what you didn't do preflop, except now, he gets to fold AK...see the problem? |

[ QUOTE ] If you don't want to get it in here, don't raise flop. Not calling here means you turned your QQ into a bluff. Which is why you need to flatcall this flop if you put your opponent on JJ+, AK. This loses less from better, but wins more from worse. I call here, albeit unhappily. I expect to see JJ or TT every once in a while but KK or AA with a higher frequency. EDIT: Missed samplesize. I'm calling happily, then. [/ QUOTE ] Why do we turn our hand in a bluff by folding here? I think we raise flop for value (vs. 88-JJ), but have to fold now, since he shows more strength than 88-JJ would do. [/ QUOTE ] I think you're right but villan may push flop with JJ as any overpair (88+) is likely to bump this flop. |

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think that's what you're doing. 88-JJ are often going to find folds from total nits here, and you fold because you think he's a total nit. So effectively you were raising to find out if he was a nit or not, ie. betting for info. You could just as well be raising 22 here with the same effect. Which is why I think flatcalling and then calling down is a better line. You don't show any strength, which will often induce villain to start betting with 88+ and AK instead of QQ+ if you raise him. Yes, it's a high variance line. But I'm pretty sure it's the max value line here. I don't see what 'set mining' has to do with this, by the way. I don't see a Q on board here. |

Get it in while I have equity over a range. I'm more than happy to adjust my play to suit this against normal sized pf3bets. I just don't know if you see AK,JJ,QQ getting min3bet pf as often as AA,KK? |

[ QUOTE ] oh you are right the sample size is extremely small. I still fold QQ here. But i'd 4bet QQ preflop and fold to a 5bet (depending on stack sizes). [/ QUOTE ] Why are you turning QQ into a bluff preflop? I really hate the 4-bet/fold line. [/ QUOTE ] Why do we turn QQ in a bluff? I think TT,JJ,AK,AQs will still call and KK+ will raise, therefore we fold to a 5bet (full stacked). Since we only got ~75BBs we have to call. [ QUOTE ] [ QUOTE ] As played we should probably fold, he got AA/KK. [/ QUOTE ] I don't think his range is that narrow, and I call. I've seen people do this with 78s at PS 25NL, where they get tired of LP raises and then decide that top pair is the nuts on the flop. This isn't going to happen much, but ranges are wider than you may think. [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] You've seen people doing that, i have, too. But villain is not a retard, we see that even with this small sample size. A guy who does that with 78s is sth like 40/10 after 25 hands. I fold here. |

[img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] Min 3-bets, as most minbets, are often one of two things: - Monsters that want more value but don't want to lose people - Bluffs/marginal hands that don't want to lose too much money. |

Calling is effectively set mining as you are assuming you're behind here (i.e. your hanging out for a Q). Lets say board comes 9 then 2 and villan shoves. Do you then call? If you don't then you're assuming you were behind from the get-go. If an ace or a king hits then you've let AK get there. |

[/ QUOTE ] Here's why I hate that line: - People do 5-bet with AQ+, TT+, perhaps because people like you take 4-bet/fold lines with QQ. - Nits that don't, generally fold TT,JJ and AK to 4-bets meaning you didn't need to 4-bet in the first place. If you can't fold to a 5-bet happily, or call a 5-bet happily then don't 4-bet. Now, a good reason to 4-bet is that you otherwise only 4-bet KK+, which sucks. But 4-betting to fold to a 5-bet feels like raising for info. [ QUOTE ] You've seen people doing that, i have, too. But villain is not a retard, we see that even with this small sample size. [/ QUOTE ] I disagree. We know nothing about villain's postflop play here, and only have a marginal read that he's somewhat nitty preflop. I've seen villains with better stats do tons of dumber things than jam TT vs someone who wants to fold QQ. |

I'm calling here because I think that gets more value vs. villain's entire range. Simply put, raising to fold means you're bluffing and not getting value from very many hands. Raising to call means that villain gets a good chance to fold all the hands that you beat (including AK). However, calling him down all the way (maybe shut down if an A falls and he doesn't slow down) gets value from his entire range, including AK. |
