$1 9man - AK in UTG vs BB

Hero raises to 80

In this limit raise more 120-130, you are utg and if anyone calls whole table will call, you dont want to see flop Ax89s with 5 players oop. There are 2 dimonds on flop and bb calls your c-bet, bet turn, you miss value if he plays f-draw and river is blank.

Pre-flop: 4x raise is fine

Flop: Good C-bet

Turn: I'd bet here because we want value from flush and straight draws. We also want to keep our initiative heading into the river.

River: Since you have initiative, the BB will most likely check to you again. You can decide whether you want to bet/fold, bet/call or check the river.

In my opinion, I would check the river because a lot of T-x of his range hit two pair on the river. If opponent bets the pot on the river, I would tend to fold here depending on the opponent because we are most likely beat here a lot of the time.

Hello all,

Preflop:

edit: We should raise to 120-160 chips.

Flop:

Smaller c-bet. There is no need to c-bet more than 50% of the pot - 90 chips. We are always bet folding.

Turn:

Mandatory bet for value and protection from all the draws. Bet to ~300-330 chips is fine. If villain raise us we got easy fold.

River:

As played it depends on villain. Most of the time I would fold but if villain likes to bluff like this with his missed draws, than call is fine. We definitely should not raise. There is no worse hand that is going to call our raise.

Best regards,
Antoan

Preflop:OK.

Why is utg minbet ok?

Hi,

My bad, I confused that BB is 20 chips
On this blind levels I prefer to raise from 120-160 chips. This raise size to 80 chips is too small. We are giving villains too chip price to call.

Best regards,
Antoan
