    Default What would you do with this hand?

    Hello guys, I am freshman . This situation might look very easy or sutpid to you, but I got very irritated to get re-raise my bets all the time.

    Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (5 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    me=) (MP) ($6.35)
    Button ($11.20)
    SB ($5.36)
    BB ($5)
    UTG ($1.52)

    Preflop: me=) is MP with A, 9
    1 fold, me=) bets $0.10, 2 folds, BB raises to $0.35, me=) calls $0.25

    Flop: ($0.72) A, Q, 10 (2 players)
    BB bets $0.70, me=) raises to $6 (All-In), BB calls $3.95 (All-In)

    Turn: ($10.02) 2 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    River: ($10.02) 8 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Total pot: $10.02 | Rake: $0.66

    I have questions:

    1.How can I understand , If my opponent have pocket pairs. He obviously have ,but since all the time someone bets it is hard to determine.

    I totally accept i shouldnt have said all in :P person was very irritating :P

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    1) Raising to $0.15c initially.

    2) Fold ot villain's 3bet. He's likely not 3betting light, and all of the hands he would 3bet for value, you aren't in good shape against.

    3) If you call preflop, you can only really call this flop bet, and fold to a turn bet. Raising the flop bet lets him fold all hands you beat, KK, JJ, KQ, etc, while you get the money in against hands that beat you (TT, QQ, AT, AQ, AA, AK, KJ, QT}.

    I'd much rather open A9 suited.

    As you progress as a player you should think about why this is so effective and how you can be the one creating this difficulty for others. As you begin to understand this it will also be easier to play against.
