AK getting 3-bet preflop

Fiksdal · #1 03-25-2007, 05:23 PM

Sorry if I am bombing the forum with hands, but I had many tough spots in todays session.

Villain is 13/17/39 over 89 hands.

(btw, the stats are pfr/vpip/agression, right?)

Full Tilt Poker
$0.05/$0.10 No Limit Hold'em Ring Game
5 Players
LegoPoker Hand Converter

Stack Sizes
BB: $9.9
UTG: $11.35
MP: $11.30
CO: $17.20
Hero (BTN): $14.10

Preflop: A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K

($0.1, 5 players)
UTG calls $0.10, MP calls $0.10, CO folds, Hero raises to $0.50, BB raises to $2, UTG folds, MP folds, Hero?

Do I felt AK for 100bbs here? Do I take a flop? Do I fold?

13/17 hmmm?
if so I better fold vs his skillz [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Standard way to give stats is is VPIP/PFR/AGGR AFAIK.

I think I'll call here IP, and let him hang on a A/K good flop. This is a tricky spot for sure - I still find it so.

4betting[oop] or folding are ok sometimes too in my book but given his high PFR I think we're in o.k shape vs his range and have position so might as well us it.

given your position here i like to call. 4 bet is good too but against a nitty like villain i dont mind taking a flop. i will mix it up in this spot though between pushing and calling. at 10NL pushing def isnt bad. you will get looked up real light alot of the time. but given this guys stats and such (even though small smaple) a call is probably the line id take here

you have position on him, so i'd call and see the flop. AK is a drawing hand and not a made one, so i prefer to play it cautiously.

Call in position and fold to any aggression if no AK hits. At 10NL I don`t recommend to 4-bet even when OOP, cause as Stake MOnster mentioned AK is a drawing hand and people are not 3betting light at this level and you don`t have much FE wich is one reason you 4bet AK. Never fold tho, unless he`s a total nit.
