Title: Is This A Fold? Post by: GlasgowBandit on March 27, 2008, 11:23:22 PM AQ in BB, we have 17 x bb and blinds are going up next hand.
UTG + 2 tight player puts in a standard 3 x bb raise. The range you put him on is 99+, AJs+ Are we prepared to shove here from the BB and get a showdown hoping for a raise or are we passing?

if you miss the Q ( the A may be no good if it flops,if he has AK )... are u done with the hand>? ( u have to ask youself this ) seeing as it looks like u have to hit another Q ,then its a clear fold this subscribes to the gap theory fold.... Title: Re: Is This A Fold? Post by: GlasgowBandit on March 28, 2008, 02:43:08 AM yeah it was either shove or fold there the stop n' go did cross my mind any board that never had an A or K. Kinda hoping he did have AK and we could get him off the hand. Difficult situation to be in, had been card dead for a while well out the money and it was already starting to get crap shooty once the blinds go by us we then have around 12 x bb meaning we're approaching sgove with ATC. AQ does have showdown value but with oppos range being so tight it was a pass.
But ...... it was shoveled in pre and matey duly had AK board bricked out and K played. Bollocks, who do we go against our instinct!! Arrrgh Title: Re: Is This A Fold?

The player in question must be really bad to be that tight though! Title: Re: Is This A Fold?

The only hands he played in the first 4 levels JJ, AK, AQ each time he put in a 3 x bb raise and then pushed the flop once with middle set. I don't recall him playing anything else. This was a donkfest on iPoker so its plausible that he is either very bad/super tight unless he has the goods. |
