nlhe noob with AJs nl100
Hi-
NL100 6max game. I'm sb with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] I open raise to $4 (4x bb) Unremarkable, loosish bb (stack = 50bb) reraises to $11. I call $7 (bad?) Flop J66 rainbow. (pot = $22ish) I check. He leads $15. I push more than his stack. Any comments on both streets? |

I think pf is okay against a loose player.
Why c/r flop? I think I like leading here better. |

[/ QUOTE ] i don't know. i'm very much playing by feel. lead pot size? thats about half his remaining stack if i lead, can i fold to a raise? do i lead a blank turn and fold to a raise? if i make a sizable bet, i feel he's basically pushing. should i care? thanks for the comments... |

Re: nlhe noob with AJs nl100
If he's loosish, this is pretty standard, especially considering how short you're playing.
If you're not playing short, it's more marginal; if you're not playing short and the opponent is not "loosish," dump it preflop like your fifth-grade girlfriend. Don't even leave a note in its locker. |

I can't see the preflop call being at all good

[/ QUOTE ] Not a stupid question at all; in fact, it is precisely what makes answering these posts in an online forum difficult. I have played live against people who will min-re-raise QT. They'll min-raise any pair. They'll MRR Ax. It's very ugly. A loose player has a wide range here, even with a re-raise. But I might be imagining a player who is more loose than the actual Villain. Who knows. I can tell you that in a standard situation, I muck AJ to a re-raise every time preflop. |

Being short is a factor here, but it's hard to tell what "loosish" actually means. I agree with you that AJ is usually junk to any raise preflop. |
