Dynamics of re-raising
I would be very interested in hearing some experienced feedback on this one.
Opponent is 23/14 at 5-handed NL200. He openraises at CO and itīs folded to you in BB. What would you do with the following hands, and why? 1) KQo 2) 98s 3) 22 The only thing you know about this opponent is that if you re-raise him, he will push AKx about 10% of the time. |

Re: Dynamics of re-raising
1. raise
2. fold/raise depending on mood, usually fold 3. call/raise depending on mood, usually call. if i think he is really good i usually fold but against most standard TAGs I'll play this |

Re: Dynamics of re-raising
1) KQo - call 80/ raise 20
2) 98s - call 70/ raise 30 3) 22 - call 60/ raise 40 estimates obv. I have been toning down preflop agression this month just a tad. also the openraise amount matters, these are my actions assuming a $6 openraise |

Re: Dynamics of re-raising
KQo - Ususally call now days, unless he's bad and I want the pot fat
98s - Reraise 70%, call the rest, intending on making the odd move if I call. 22 - Same as 98s |

Re: Dynamics of re-raising
Thnaks for the input folks.
However, I was mostly interested in the dynamics of what is likely to happens if you re-raise him. So please elaborate a little deeper then just "call/raise". For example: 1)Why is ever a call the best way? Since he comes in light you very often will fold a missed flop to his 85s. 2) Since he does not push AK easily, you will often win the pot if you 3bet and he doesn't hit (when you bet the flop). So that's an argument for raising I would say. 3) On the contrary, he will probably fold any worse K or Q if you 3bet KQ or AK. So would calling with KQ and AK maybe be the best, and raising with the hands you can easily fold to a push? 4) Or should the general priciple be: Just raise him if you are far ahead of his range, even OOP? Since you have the most equity, good things are likely to happen. Theese are just loose ends for me at this point, and I would really appreciate some guidance on tying them together. Thanks again |
