Re: Lay Down a Set?
I can understand thinking twice whenever a good tight player is interested in a hand. However, I think by the way it's played he'll likely have AK. He'll get paid here with AQ, AJ, KK, QQ by a lot of bad players. If I've seen him make bet hard out of position like this before with an A on board, I'm even more inclined to give him AK.

Re: Lay Down a Set?
OP
It is often easy to rationalise a fold when an opponents strong betting "must" mean that he has you beaten. Given the lack of reads you are really just scared of AA - 66 may raise under the gun, but should certainly be discounted in evaluating likelihood. 99 is very unlikely to have bet the flop into the field with a card which may well have helped. There has been a 2nd caller. I think given the level of interest in the pot, 66 would raise. Therefore, I imagine this guy is on Ax. If this is our assumption then that gives UTG 1 AA combo, and 8 AK combos. Also look at the bet size - full pot. If you have AA, do you pot it? After all, if people come for the ride, they are drawing to 1 out. This is the perfect spot to get the money in two steps with a $75 bet, and try and take two stacks in one. Ok, you probably got stacked - all villains are different. But this is my thought process as to why this is an instacall. |

Re: Lay Down a Set?
Actually I hijacked this thread. Most of the discussion was about a hand posted about 1/3 the way down the page. A new thread was started for the OP, titled "Hijacked Thread"

Neither, it means that it really doesn't matter what you do, in the long run it is breakeven. PS sorry about the hijack. [/ QUOTE ] ROFL if he has QQ 50% and AA/KK the other 50% its an instant snapcall folding in that spot would be terrible |

Re: Lay Down a Set?
If you play this hand you want to see Ax2 flop, the other dude holding Ax. So what are you waiting for?
I don't see many questionmarks here... Set over set you almost always get stacked on such boards... For other advice, go to the BBV [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] |
