25NL ATs vs blind steal

[MrWooster]

No stats on BTN but he has stolen 2 out of 3 orbits so far and seems pretty tagish

Fold. Try not to resteal with hands like AT, because if you're called, you're almost always dominated. With a hand like 56s or something at least both cards are live and you might luck into a big hand. Or you could just do it with something like J3 and make it all a big bluff (since the hand was worthless anyway).

Ya, I think you can fold this at NL25. It's a nice move to make for villain though because alot of your 3betting range is JJ-KK which you will likely fold to his raise on an Axx flop, so he can make it with atc. I would doubt that as possible though until I know more about him and give him credit in this spot.

i fold-he has AJ+ right

[MrWooster]

Ok - I folded but was a bit unsure about it.

[pokerplaya5]

Yeah, you have to fold at 25NL. He probably doesn't raise if he is scared of that ace.

I dont mind you 3 betting with AT since it sends out a message even if he calls to slow down some on the button raising, i would prefer to do it thou with more hidden hands like 79s and so on... but atm you have to lay it down unless you got a read he might stack of with ace and a worse kickes. But aj+ seems to plausible.
