Any thoughts on this hand?Notice I limped in and the raiser raised with K2 in early/mid position. They do the same at this limit as they do at other limits.Comments? Link to post Share on other sites

LaydownKing 0 Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 Fold preflop. This is a tight table.EDIT: Raising this might be good for deception at a limit this high. Link to post Share on other sites
akishore 0 Posted September 8, 2005 Share Posted September 8, 2005 i'm not a huge fan of the limp preflop.at a tight table, suited connectors just don't thrive. they don't get the odds and big, multiway pots they need to draw profitably to gutshots and two pairs / trips, and at the same time, while being heads-up and shorthanded, they hit a lot of marginal/weak hands like second pair that don't play great. add in the fact that you're out of position and this hand just doesn't do great.i fold this maybe 90% of the time and raise it maybe 10% of the time for deception if i'm playing at a tight/aggressive table.i would checkraise this flop, too. your raise actually has value, believe it or not. you expect to win by showdown at least 35% of the time (that's how often your flush comes in, and sometimes you might win by catching a running straight, two pair or trips, and maybe even just a pair), and since you're putting in 33% of the money, you have an edge. i also checkraise for deception and to set up a turn semi-bluff if you miss.aseem Link to post Share on other sites
