I ...I don't like villain's play in the first hand. I just don't feel like JJ is strong enough for just a call from the SB. Even if he induces a squeeze or the BB shoves with a good hand, he is going to be behind or racing against a call to his shove. Also, he just calls OOP and now has to play JJ OOP against a PF raiser. Not sure I'd want to do this and I'd rather pop it up.<BR/><BR/>Question... what do you do on this hand if the SB reraises PF?<BR/><BR/>Second hand is great. You played it pretty much perfectly. AQ plays decently well OOP and you showed strength with it PF. The river check is just great. If you bet, villain is only calling with a chop IMO or jamming. If he has 88 you're in trouble, but that is unlikely because I feel like he would have raised the flop with the flush draw there or raised the turn IMO. On the river, you might as well check to induce a bluff. Villain is folding anything marginal here and will only win by firing at the pot. I think he waited too long on his float and was committed on the river to put all his money in given his line.Donnie Petershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10551255233065783655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207694267965942223.post-80386088046088863792008-04-03T14:00:00.000-05:002008-04-03T14:00:00.000-05:00Don't know if I'd call the first hand with AK when...Don't know if I'd call the first hand with AK when my opponent is allin and I've only invested $50. I find I get the best results when I play lots of pots postflop against my opponents, not getting it in preflop. <BR/>You're a good player, and I think you should wait for a better spot than hoping for a coinflip...SubZerohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06127559987774638222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207694267965942223.post-62659495491328877672008-04-03T13:56:00.000-05:002008-04-03T13:56:00.000-05:00i don't mind the bluff there, if the board DID NOT...i don't mind the bluff there, if the board DID NOT playout, that nothing beats a bare ace.

As for getting you money in bad, you're getting the right price to make the call, assuming you're pretty sure that you're not gonna see AA/KK from your opponent (which is pretty unlikely).<BR/><BR/>Second hand: nice! But, for what it's worth, I play 36s the same way.Klopzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601491246369039505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207694267965942223.post-56444674672755034212008-04-02T20:35:00.000-05:002008-04-02T20:35:00.000-05:00As a rule of thumb for myself, I view AQ as a 3-be...As a rule of thumb for myself, I view AQ as a 3-betting hand in most situations.<BR/>The smooth call-reraise with JJ is pretty odd. I've seen it much more with AA or KK.Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06181215527323378978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207694267965942223.post-56634778578415192842008-04-02T14:49:00.000-05:002008-04-02T14:49:00.000-05:00Rhino!!Rhino!!Schaubshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18022476308776632194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8207694267965942223.post-55601302688095963902008-04-02T12:58:00.000-05:002008-04-02T12:58:00.000-05:00lol at the double floatand no way can you fold AK ...lol at the double float<BR/><BR/>and no way can you fold AK there imoLoretta8https://www.blogger.com/profile/11571853886613887555noreply@blogger.com
