Easiest fold PF, seriously. Instacall as played - what flop did you expect raising AJ? AJJ?

MVPaul · #3 10-12-2007, 05:00 PM

You are not even limping this hand pf? What?

*OT*

Oh s***, you're lithuanian? For real? Both my maternal grandparents are lithuanian... I have yet to visit the motherland, though.

call as played, but i would probably just limp preflop.

Pocketbear · #6 10-12-2007, 05:10 PM

Yes, not even limping, because you have to fold if raised and there is a big chance someone raises behind you as you're UTG+1. I can see an argument for limping after a limper or two from CO or BTN, but definitely not from EP.

As for OT, you're welcome, I can even be your guide, I guess [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Can anyone walk me through why this is not a fold? I play mostly $5 and $10 SnG's and, barring the guy being a complete maniac, this bet is usually what it looks like.

pf isn't very good in ep, lp is fine. as for the flop, be real with yourself. get it in every single time.

I fold this pre-flop.. Probably won't play AJ until at least 50-100..

If you are going to fold AJ when you hit two pair and face aggression, you probably shouldn't play AJ.
