[Closed] 4NL AQs

hi keoghh.

you are in Early position so fold preflop i think its the best move here, you can easily me dominated by other hands . also i think you should raise 4xbb and not 3xbb preflop. since you decided to play the hand you should continue carefully...you hit the flop well. on the flop you should definetely reraise and not call the only hand that beat you is a set and the way that your opponent play you only be beaten by a set (88)...

Ok so he pot bets of 0.52, so what am i raising to, $1.5? which would bascally pot commit him? so shud i just shove?

You should definitely find a new hand converter! PokerStrategy.com one works great.

Anyway. I'm not a full ring player myself, but i do know they're pretty notty so imho. I would only open AQs FR if i'm UTG+2, i used to keep my range pretty tight on first two positions.

Flop play was pretty bad, you must raise there to protect your hand against draws, the lead-bet over there usually intends to block the betting from the agressor (doesn't makes sense that he pots it, but 'oh well').

Either way, nit up range UTG, UTG+1. If this was a 9max table i might open AQs there, but not so sure. (Once again, i like SH the best).

Raise on that kind of flop, always, you need to protect your hand against the variety of hands villain could have. And btw, for further posting, don't post the results, it usually makes the play be read another way (or tag them with spoilers).

Giving he is ~70bb deep. Yea, shove looks fine.

Ok thanks guys, any1 else got any opinions. And yeh had some trouble getting hand histories from william hill so this is the best i can do for now, wont show results in future.

you are 3 in the pot and the other player has about 5.5$ so 1.5 i think its ok.
