 Pot limit A-K problem, catsclaw, 28. Sep 2002 15:48 | ||
| View ( Message | Thread ) | Return to Thread List | |
| In an early position I get AsKd in a 5-5-10 pot limit game. I open raise for $60 and get a call and a reraise for $210. Two others call cold, including the big blind (who is steaming and running out of chips). I call (?). Five see the flop. Flop is 8c2d2c. BB bets and I fold. Reraiser calls. All others fold. Turn is the Kc. BB goes all in and is called by flop reraiser. River is 6d. BB has KsJh and the flop reraiser has JcJs. Evaluate my play. Where did I go wrong? | ||

You might not have done anything wrong. I think it depends on how you read the BB player. He was steaming, but was he loose or becoming reckless. What were the odds he'd cold call the preflop raising with a 2 or 2's? How about 8's? And then would he come out betting on the flop with all the pre-flop action? If I put him on top pair, overcards, or an over pair(not likely), I probably would have called. But what about the pre-flop raiser, he was in late so you might still have the best hand. But, if I call the BB and got re-raised I'd dump the hand. If you did call and see the turn, you'd again be facing a bet(all in) from BB, with another tough decision. Mark | ||

| I think your play was fine. Preflop unless the raiser is the type never to reraise without a big pair (some opponents are in pot limit) you have an easy call. On the flop assuming a reasonable size bet on the flop If you could see all your opponents cards on the flop you have an easy fold. Given the reraise and two cold callers I think it is safe to assume that someone has a pair to play with steamer. Scrooge Mcd on 28.
