Standard business w/ TPTK

Laetus · #1 10-23-2007, 05:15 PM

Villain is a decent TAG playing something like 22/17/3.8 and I'm playing TAG w/ similar stats. This is such a standard spot and I'm fairly sure I know what to do, but just want to make sure I'm right - so what's your standard?

Everest Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $3.00/$6.00 (HH Converter by Kreatief)

CO ($808.00)
Button ($600.00)
SB ($579.00)
BB ($733.00)
MP2 ($404.86)
MP3 ($532.00) (Hero)

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
1 folds, Hero raises to $21.00, 1 folds, Button calls $21.00, 2 folds,

Flop: 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ( $51 )
Hero bets $39.00, Button raises to $124.00

Nah, I think he most likely call. If it had been CO vs button, or button vs blinds I'm fairly sure he 3-bet it though.

If villain is any good you should atleast call.

rand · #6 10-23-2007, 06:23 PM

id call and reevaluate, there arnt many draws out there though with the Ah on board... no history im assuming??

Laetus · #7 10-23-2007, 06:41 PM

Nah, no history.

I can play it two ways, either call and crai on blank turn or get it in right now.

why CR turn?
isnt his range 333, 888, A8 (A3) air FD and (AQ)

seems like a turn CR only gets you action when you are behind and it only has the benefit of catching his second barrel (and maybe a FD is priced in there)

i would 3bet now or call/fold depending on how many barrels you feel he has

If he is aggressive as he appears to be then call, but this means you will likely be faced with further aggression and will have to face a bet on the turn. A fold is still fine a lot of the time.
