hand 1 I play the same way in most situations

Hand 2 I dont like putting myself in a situation where I'm going to have to put extra chips in OOP with a hand as weak as ATo...You're to likely to get action if you flop a pair which isnt going to be strong enough OOP...AND you arent going to be able to rep the flop and take it down enough. I can only see doing this MAYBE on a super fold prone table. Otherwise it's going to cost you money in the long run.

PK
Superb play sir...I always call 20% of my stack off with a gutshot draw. Excuse me while I race for my wallet.

Hand 1 is fine. Hand 2 is terrible. Stick to ABC poker at 25NL.

What was so tricky about hand 2?

I sensed obvious weakness at the table. Presumably I was ahead, or coinflipping with small pairs.

Flop was relatively harmless. I figure A high is ahead, and take my chances that I am not up against a spiked set. If I get played back at or called, I assume I am against a set, and I fold whether and A or a T comes on Fourth Street or not.

I think in this particular case, my steal would have werked more than not.

Are you implying that someone may have limped AJ+?

Nope. Stop thinking like a limit player.

On the flop who has the best hand really doesn't matter. It's more a matter of who's willing to continue against your aggression.

Hand 1 is good.

Hand 2 I don't like raising AT or AJ in the BB. I feel that I'm better off to raise 72o on the button. When I feel like that, I don't raise OOP.

What Fnord said. Also, AJ/AQ is certainly possible, but it is not really the main problem with raising a hand like ATo out of the BB. Fishes will call you with all sorts of crap, and when they see a flop like that they refuse to believe you have a high PP and call you down with any pair since "it beats AK." That's why the way to beat these fishes is to value bet the piss out of them with made hands and punish them for calling down with crap, not to muscle them out of pots with nothing.

But regardless, playing ATo the way you did against multiple limpers is a bad play, doesn't matter if you're playing 25NL or 2kNL. You are creating a big pot OOP with a very weak and easily dominated hand.

Hand #2 is standard play for me as well. Take down small to medium sized pots with it all the time. Lose a pot every now and then. Leads to the swings I mentioned in another post, but you'd be surprised how many guys at this limit can't take the second barrel you fire as long as both barrels are painful to them. Problem then becomes the ones that are bulletproof...

But I would say I take down more pots this way than I lose, and against mulitple callers, I play with more caution....FWIW....

Questions on hand one for Renton and the experts here.

Have you seen villian make moves like this? Any reads?

He is putting $9 into a $19 pot. at 3:1 on you money and betting closed, can you put him on AK often enough to make it a +EV call?
