pot control with A-K
UTG is unknown.
Any better ideas on playing this hand - specifically with regards to pot control. Since I 3-bet preflop and cbet, the pot was very large and I faced a very tough decision on the turn! I figured there was just too much in the pot to fold - right ?

Re: pot control with A-K
Call. And jamming turn is what I would do. Why would you be playing for pot control NOW when the pot is already the size of your stack?

call. If we're beaten, it's much more likely by AA than a J or like KK or 55.

Re: pot control with A-K
there is no pot control in 3bet pots with 100bbs. either you think you're ahead postflop or you don't.

Re: pot control with A-K
checking with the intention of inducing a bluff is the correct turn play IMO.
If he checks behind shovels the river. |

[/ QUOTE ] You really don't understand Stack to Blind ratio's.... 100bb's I happily get it in every time with your hand, anything less is not only weak tight, it's mathematically incorrect for you to put that much of your stack in then play for pot control [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] |
