screech 0 Posted December 25, 2005 Share Posted December 25, 2005 I'd sometimes fold pf. Depending on the pf raiser and my mood. I don't think calling is a mistake.I don't fold on the flop or turn. Link to post Share on other sites
Actuary 3 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 I fold preflop.Why? Because I don't like my chances against a MP2 raiser getting 5:1Much depends on read on him, as well as, what SB will call with here.I call with KJ (sometimes, as I begin to play more from BB) Link to post Share on other sites
Sysvr4 0 Posted December 26, 2005 Author Share Posted December 26, 2005 Why? Because I don't like my chances against a MP2 raiser getting 5:1Well, you may not like your chances, but what is the worst case for us? I can think of three:a) One or more opponents has an overpair (not likely here)B) One or more opponents has a pair > 9 (not terribly likely, but possible)c) One or more opponents has a better kingThe rest of the hands give us a virtual coin flip HU, and more than enough equity to call with 2 opponents.So since you're an actuary, Actuary, are we up against any of those often enough to warrant folding this hand without reads?

Actuary 3 Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 RIO.Pos.I'm never that much ahead on any flop thats not K9x,99x,kKxI don't think it's a huge mistake to call, just slight one.poor visibilityI don't call with it in the CO afte 4 limpers; I'm sure as heck not calling now given a pfr and pos. If MP2 is LAggy, or if its the Button, I usually call here. I give Mp2 more respectanyway, it's your hand.I'm not asking for critques! Link to post Share on other sites
Sysvr4 0 Posted December 26, 2005 Author Share Posted December 26, 2005 anyway, it's your hand.I'm not asking for critques! Hehe, you misunderstand. I'm not arguing that my play was best... I'm honestly asking how often these bad scenarios crop up to warrant folding.I don't think the PF call is +EV, but I don't think it's -EV either. I'm looking for confirmation of an argument to the contrary Jeff Link to post Share on other sites
