Title: AKs, mildly dodgy board, easy call? Post by: Benny Brox on April 16, 2008, 05:38:38 PM $0.10/$0.25 NLH Cash - 9 players - Early on in session
Villain - $20.30 Hero - $21.40 In MP with Ac Kc, open raise to $0.85. Player to my left flat calls, all else fold. Flop comes Ts Qc As - Pot = $2.05 Lead out for $2 and a flat call Turn Ahrt - Pot = $6.05 Lead out for $5 opponent now raises all-in for $17.45. Sorry if this sounds nitty but is this an easy call 100% all the time? PT stats for villain are 29/6.5/1.67 over 153 hands (but no notes) so he probably isn't bluffing much here.

Post by: Benny Brox on April 17, 2008, 05:15:00 PM Cheers, I did make the call and he showed AK as well for a split pot. I just thought Ax is the only hand that we beat so are we not behind a lot in this spot considering I've bet the flop and turn very aggressively and also considering his stats over the small sample?
Title: Re: AKs, mildly dodgy board, easy call? Post by: Wannabe on May 07, 2008, 02:59:18 PM I find this kind of hand confusing at the same limits. When people flat call the flop then make a big raise on the turn it just screams set at me. Then again I really need to learn not to be a nit. Most people seem to believe that a call here is +EV so I will be calling the next few times I come up against this situation (even if I have to force myself) and keeping a record on how I do. I have no doubt this is profitable I just need to prove it to myself *lol*
