    Default PF Raise Scenarios

    Stole this idea from r8ted, made me think of these fairly simple situations that I'd like to take a poll on:

    Facts:
    - You are on the CO in $100NL
    - Open raiser from EP/MP with 4x
    - 2 players call
    - Assume "average" aggression (no uber-lags or uber-tags)
    - Each player has around 100bb

    You have:
    1) TT
    2) JJ
    3) QQ
    4) KK
    5) AA
    6) AK
    7) AQ/AJ

    Do you call or raise and how much?

    If I could semi-hijack the thread, I'm interested in what you guys do with AQ, AJ here. I've been folding them, even with no callers before me, and was wondering how standard that is.

    I call with TT and JJ for Top Set value.

    QQ/KK/AA I reraise big to siolate against one or two people.

    Default Re: PF Raise Scenarios

    You have:
    1) TT Call.
    2) JJ Reraise about 4.5x his raise.
    3) QQ Reraise .. .. ..
    4) KK Reraise .. .. ..
    5) AA Reraise .. .. ..
    6) AK Mostly call, sometime reraise.
    7) AQ/AJ Fold if offsuit, call if suited.


    EDIT: I could make these guidelines a little more specific if you provided additional information about the scenario. e.g. Number of players, precise position of original raiser, precise range of original raiser. Most importantly what is the image of Hero up to this point?

    reraise the whole lot probably apart from AJ. Ajo i fld probably and AJs i might call depedning on opps skill level/stack depth and number of other players.

    I may call here with JJ/TT and look to trap on lower flops the only problem with that is that any overcard is scary to these hands whether opp has it or not.

    i agree pretty much with Miffed22001 although for the JJ/TT call i am looking at texture as well as overcard situation. with those you have to assume you are even money or worse to see an overcard, but even low money flops (6-7-8, 3 suited, etc.) can be problematic. betting patterns and your reads take you from there. although you only asked about PF action i think...
