Given villains stack size I think this is fine.

Shaddux · #12 09-23-2006, 04:51 PM

IMO c/c > lead > c/r

I c/c this the whole way down.

This is what I have often been doing in this situation. I mentioned "C/C flop, C/R AI on turn" because Villain would pretty much be AI after betting the turn.

yeah I dont mind that, i think the turn c/rai is semantics really. What i dont want to do is fold out AQ/KK/QQ and this guy looks like a maniac so i definitely dont want to fold here.

Yep, I agree 100%. This is what I was trying to say.

Indeed, and C/R on the flop is more likely to freeze up all these hands. The only thing that sucks is if a spade falls on the turn our action kind of gets killed.

I think c/c may lose value from weaker aces and other hands if the flush card hits.

given the preflop action, how likely do you think those holdings are?

Calling the reraise preflop is not bad. But IMO raising again should be in your mix. Mostly because you're oop. I'm might be going all in here. When I go all in preflop in this spot, 50% of the time I have AA-KK, the rest of the time I have either AK or 76s.

There is no reason whatsoever to do this at 25NL and IMO it is major major chip spewage.

Well, I think you're very wrong. But since you didn't give me anything concrete to refute, that's all I can say.
