AK decision

deadtime · #1 11-07-2007, 06:21 AM

Villain is fairly TAG but I think I have a bad image at this point.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.10 BB (4 handed) Full Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero ($29.80)
Button ($14.25)
SB ($4)
BB ($7.05)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. Hero posts a blind of $0.10.
1 fold, BB raises to $0.35, Hero (poster) raises to $1.1, BB calls $0.70.

Flop: ($2.15) Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (3 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $1.2, BB raises to $5.6, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $4.55

His likely holdings? AQ?

I don't play 10nl but, at 50nl I'd say 'yes he has you beat'.
At 10nl I'd prob say no, PUSH - he's a shorty, they do that will all kinds of carp.

It's really opponent and situation dependent. Can't really give you advice. But his range is wider than AQ.

I don't understand PF. Why are you posting 4-handed? Why are you acting 3rd while being UTG?

I think the converter messed up.

I make it 1.2 pf. On the flop I standard cbet and call the shove. Given your image. He might be doing this with almost every ace, he might be semi-bluffing with a draw TJ.. It's a 3bet pot you have TPTK. I push here.

75BB isn't that short imo. What's the uNL definition of short? < 50 BB?

I don't think he raises a TJ type hand preflop. Was unsure whether he was capable a playing a weaker ace like this. I suppose A9 is a possibility. Or a set. He isn't that short and in my experience of 10NL this type of aggression seems to be better than top pair a lot.

whoa. there is no way you can fold TPTK in a reraised pot for 70bbs. Get the money in ASAP with a fistpump.

On these limits, I get that feeling as well. But if that's your read, you must go with it. Without reads our stats, this is standard.
