Default Re: Laak and Esfandiari fold AQ UTG

well what Antonio is saying that if you turn pro and play the games he plays you have to be able to fold QA UTG.
What he forgot is that the guy is playing 5/10 live.

There are very few games in the "normal" limits wich are so agrressive that you have to fold AQ UTG.

for some online pro's AQ is the nuts.

Default Re: Laak and Esfandiari fold AQ UTG

Recently, I've changed some things, for example I now fold AJos in EP and MP 80% and raise it 20%. As this really seems to work well, I'm thinking about changing my playing style with AQos, too, and folding it PF UTG and in EP like 50 - 60% seems pretty reasonable to me. It's simply very tough to play AQos OOP against two or three callers, so it might be better not to get into this spot at first. Just my opinion.
(Wow, I'm really transforming into a complete nit...)

I don't think folding AQo UTG is particularly nitty.

I think an awful lot of people would jump a level if they tightened up at the front and loosened up at the back.

I would think that 22+,AK would not be wrong from UTG (raising the proper premium holdings depending on the table)

I like AJs better than AQo at a full table, but still usually fold AJs UTG, but it depends on the lay of the table.

Even when I'm playing superlag (35%+ VPIP), I wouldn't play AQo UTG without a specific reason to. Despite how pretty it is, it's a win a little, lose a lot hand.
