Re: AKs, trying to learn a little more about the math of poker.
[ QUOTE ]
I've seen overbets from all sorts of hands, so I can't say. In a raised pot, two pair, set and straight (along with something like 9x[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7x[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], QJ[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and so forth are all far more likely, and AK is at least drawing live against a set or straight. In a 3bet pot especially from a 14/9 guy raising UTG, AA is >> AK because he often has KK or QQ. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah. And he could easily be just calling preflop with QQ,KK, and AA... but same with any pocket pair. This hand probably wasn't worth posting, since I didn't realize how much equity I have, even against KK+ until I started looking at it after the fact. I folded (groan), but in my defence, I wasn't paying attention and completely misread the odds as well as the preflop action. |

Re: AKs, trying to learn a little more about the math of poker.
depending on his exact range it's either a close call or a close fold. I wouldn't sweat it too much. You have a better idea of his range than we do, so just toss it in PokerStove and see what it says.

Is checking the flop an option? I was hoping to bet/3bet AI, but he didn't give me the chance.

Re: AKs, trying to learn a little more about the math of poker.
Why is re-raising a 14/9 with AK from the blinds good? I sometimes call here, but usually re-raise, and feel like when I 3bet I get stuck in bad spots too much. Is calling preflop here awful?
