project240 0 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Don't have hand history, but don't really need it for this one. Playing a 10 man ring $1/2 limit. I raised in 6th position w/ AJ os to $2, button +1 raises to $3, button raises to $4 all fold to me. Do you call here with AJ knowing you are behind, hoping they have AK or an underpair?Comments.

Verdimme 0 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 When facing two bets back to me after my initial raise i tighten up like i have to call two cold. That makes AJo an easy fold. Link to post Share on other sites
speedz99 145 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Fold what is most likely a dominated hand. Link to post Share on other sites
project240 0 Posted November 16, 2005 Author Share Posted November 16, 2005 That was my thinking as well. I folded preflop.Flop came J-5-7check, checkTurn 3check, checkRiver 5Check, Bet, CallBoth players show AKI know I would have won this particular hand, but this was an easy fold PF...

Actuary 3 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 w/o reading replies:what is button+1 ?anyway. Getting 13:2 most likely, I call.It's a loose call, probably a bad call.. but I don't want to raise/fold pf with this hand. *read replies*bummer. Don't give results so fast!.

Verdimme 0 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Hmm Actuary, why would you ever want to play a pot where its pretty clear that your hand is dominated? I dont see any hand three betting or capping that we are a favourite over. There are exeptions to this ofcourse, when both players are pure maniacs. Link to post Share on other sites
kcb 0 Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Good fold preflop. Even if you hit your jack, if there was any heavy action you couldn't think your top pair, top kicker was any good?Preflop, you are behind to A/K, A/Q, A/A, K/K, Q/Q, J/J.It depends what your reads are. If these two people will raise and reraise with any pocket pair and you feel you are 90% sure that any ace or jack that hits the board will give you the best hand, then go ahead and call.

Don't give results so fast!.Getting 6.5-1 on a hand that is most likely dominated by some combination of one or two of the following: AK, AQ, AA, KK, QQ, JJ...I don't think it's worth the price when you consider the negative implied odds.EDIT: and you already responded...please disregard Link to post Share on other sites

When I enter a pot with AJ and get raised, i'm actually happy when it gets reraised as it allows me to release instantly a hand that would have probably cost me a little more.

mkeller3086 0 Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 i'm very "skalanskyesque" (sshe) on this type of thingi won't call with easily dominated hands like AJ here but I will still call two cold (considering i have the right odds, etc.) with hands that are less dominated like mid pocket pairs and i think 88 for example is a hell of a lot easier hand to play in this spot too Link to post Share on other sites
