 Hello,
Ive seen threads on AQo recently.

http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...ed-t88820.html

http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...on-t90572.html

http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...?highlight=aqo

http://www.flopturnriver.com/phpBB2/...rd-t90542.html

A Hand posted below.With results hidden.

The SB,BB and MP+2 seemed positionally aware and punished limpers most orbits.Between the three of them they were giving me a hard time.I was finding the table enjoyable but difficult and I had decided to quit when the C/O reached me.

Ive been reading the above links over the last week or so and decided to throw my AQo from UTg ,at least until im more experienced or find the table easy to dominte.My heart sank when i saw the flop.

$0.02/$0.04 No Limit Holdem
Betfair
9 Players
Hand Conversion Powered by weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG Hero ($7.04)
UTG+1 Gordy7 ($6.26)
MP1 DeeJayZoom ($4.37)
MP2 hokuy ($3.16)
MP3 tim147city ($2.92)
CO xxkenxx ($3.94)
BTN giorgietto ($2.84)
SB kosmorider ($7.64)
BB The puzzler ($8.82)

Pre-Flop: ($0.06, 9 players) Hero is UTG
Hero folds, 2 folds, hokuy calls $0.04, tim147city calls $0.04, 1 fold, giorgietto raises to $0.20, 2 folds, hokuy folds, tim147city calls $0.16

Flop: ($0.50, 2 players)
tim147city bets $0.25, giorgietto calls $0.25

Turn: ($1, 2 players)
tim147city checks, giorgietto bets $0.25, tim147city calls $0.25

River: ($1.50, 2 players)
tim147city bets $0.75, giorgietto calls $0.75

Final Pot:$3

tim147city shows
Tc As
giorgietto shows
Qh Qc

tim147city wins $2.85 (net +$1.40)

hokuy lost $0.04
giorgietto lost $1.45

 to ensue without a question. If this is posted just because you would have hit 2 pair, then I am sorry I didn't snap lock.

Don't be results-oriented. You need to figure out whether, at the level you play at, opening OOP with AQo is +EV. (The answer to this question may be different in different games.) If it isn't, then it doesn't matter that you flopped top two here. If it is, it wouldn't matter if the flop were T72 all hearts here.

I have no interest in discussing strategy with a protege'. Your job is to remain quiet and listen. I have a very systematic approach that I will share with the right candidate and I promise that I will turn you into a force of nature and show you elements of the game of poker that you never knew existed.
