AJ - what's the play?
Marty719:
Def shove or fold pre!! Im this spot I think ur puttin ur chips in neway!! 2/1 on ur $ so ur gettin the right price against a lot of his range and it is a chance to put urself back in contention. Tough spot tho!
LongshanksED:
very difficult situation
pre flop in early position im prone to folding this tbh as if there is a re raise like whats happened it a difficult situ
i think i can fold to be honest if you"ve got a read on the villain - you could either be totally dominated by better A or racing against 1010 or less
the fcat the villan has raised more than half his stack shows he could/should have a very good hand and i"d put him on jacks or queens
me - id fold in the position your in now
preflop i"d have either jammed it all in in the hope to take at least the blinds or fold
hi_am_chris:
Shove or fold pre for definite
lukybugur:
It played out as;
I had AJo which I raised to 300 UTG. With this raise, to answer the question above, my intention was to get all my chips in on this hand - if I was flat called PF, just jam the flop regardless. It was a risky hand to get involved with as anyone with a hand IS going to call or play back at me with a raise or shove - I knew this - so in my eyes, my only move was to call.
Having Leigh on the rail (on Messenger), we both agreed I was behind (48/52 and racing at best) but he expected me to fold. I paused and hit "Time" as I was wondering if I had missed something and COULD actually fold? I decided "Not" and called. He had KK which held and knocked me out. Leigh felt it was a "terrible play", that I was "a muppet" and that it was the Call for 700 that was the worst move. I agreed with most of you, it was my raise to 300 that was the worst part of the hand. It should have been fold or shove PF (I"d lean more towards the fold option from UTG when 7 handed).
Thanks for your comments.
