Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
I raise the flop. So far in my experience, all these weak lead bets are god only knows what, because I raise them and they fold like 80% of the time.
The way you played, I fold the turn. You don't have odds to draw, id just give up. If you had a little more money behind I might bluff the river. He looks likes hes got some smaller pocket pairlike 7s or something, that I think you could get him to fold. But I wouldnt do that all the time, just throwing it out as something to think about |

Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
Better look - sorry
Yea - I figured I was beat and was in a squishy tilty sort of way. Lost a 1 outer on the river earlier for a BUNCH!

Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
Reload preflop. You have no business sitting with 58 BBs.
PSR the flop normally, but given your stack you should just push. |

[/ QUOTE ] eh, there's not any significant advantage, other than a full stack is slightly more willing to get in with your 60BB stack than he should be. You lose on the implied odds front (wouldn't you rather be able to stack another player for 100BB when you hit your set or well concealed straight?) |

Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
Well - according to Miller the advantage is that FOR ME all stacks are the same size. It is a BIG advantage to be the short stack among large stacks . . .and Vice versa.
In fact "having a "large stack has the advantage" is one of the biggest fallacy's in Big Bet Poker" according to Miller. Just going by what I read - thats all. Must big stacks play a much looser game and as both authors say - punish the big stacks for playing loose! Plus when learning the game Malmuth says play short stacked. You say "The best way to have the advantage is to have the most skill and the largest stack. " But is it better to have LESS skill and a bigger stack? However - at 60BBs I'm normally the bigger stack of 6 of the 9 players. I'd say on a typical table 40BB is the norm. |

Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
it depends what stack size you're talking about. There isn't much intrinsic advantage in playing 60BB I don't think. Sure, they won't perfectly adjust to you and you'll get looser play from them than they should be doing, but OTOH, when you get a decent hand like a set against their overpair, you're leaving money on the table by not having a full buyin.
It's swings and roundabouts really, but at 60BB, it's about breakeven, I reckon. You definitely can have an advantage playing less than 50BB though, as long as you raise properly so as not to give stuff like LP Axs/PP/SC good implied odds. |

Re: AQ on the Button - 1 limper
I agree - I think 60 is a tweener. I WANT to play 40BB but think I'm more of a 100 player - yet - I don't want to get tilty and lose 100 because of some bone call that I'm not used to yet.
