first hand ftops main

I wonder what's greater, pleno's utg opening range or triggs utg folding range

well there is a difference between what he says it is on here and the actual range

I said I opened but thought it was incorrect.

I also don't know why people so against spots like this on pha though?? I mean its been running for 8/9 years, how much new content can we deliver between 200 or so of us? I'm just trying to find v different tuff that could potential be good or help us yield more of an edge.

Don't think they are "against" the Post as such, just debating, which is very much different to arguing.

It made me feel less of a super-nit, anyway.

And FWIW, it made me think of how different AK is to play in the early/mid/late stages of an MTT. Late on, even I can play it easily. Early doors, Level One, it's a hand I find quite tough to play, when, typically, half the table call our Bet.

What about the meta image impact of r/f UTG, does that help or hinder you in the next hour? I've no idea, just asking.

Very little I would have thought this early, I mean its going to happen.

I can't see how open folding AK would be terrible. I think it would be fairly standard to fold AQ in a full ring cash game (online) and we are even deeper here. Folding AK pre seems fine, might even be better than opening imo.

Any scenario where 'usually' we have the best hand we should be opening; we block the hands that coffin us, can flop the nuts, and can value bad weaker Aces. Guess it's a question of confidence in post flop play / preflop play when 3b. Never folding, always opening.

Also you have to factor in number of tables you are playing. Have seen this question asked awhile back
and the results seemed to be fold pre. Guess from this position the hand is also pretty face up should we get
a call.

Pleno did you 4x from UTG this early?
