pf poll

[Guruman]

please discuss the merits and stupidities of either option.

[kimchi]

I didn't vote because I can't decide.

[elffaw]

Always call to induce the mistake of your opponent always betting when he has the initiative

[DCWildcat]

I don't see a whole heck of a lot of value in discussing this but I'm sure you do. Maybe you could tell us and make our decisions a little more informed?

[TomBrooks]

"Usually", rather than "Always", would have made the question easier to awnser.

It depends mostly on what cards I have and if I can knock anyone out or not with a cap.

[raytownloc]

If I had to choose one, which obviously is stupid, I would always call. Why? Because the flop tells me how far I want to go with my hand, and Id rather save my extra bets for after I have more information.

Always calling in the second case is fine unless the guy's a crazy.

[b2coder]

is not capping with monster hands (AA,KK) heads up preflop for deception better in position or out of position?

thats what i was lookin for. whats your thought process there leader?

[Guruman]

I think a pertinent element to these scenarios is the fact that whoever puts the last raise in pf is going to bet 95% of flops and probably 60-80% of turns.

the question is - when do we want that guy to be us, and when do we want it to be him?

Since we have to play our monsters in a similar manner to our trash hands, which strategy will work best over time.

qualifying with reads is fine.
