Paired boards
new to the forums so first of all glad to be part of the site :)
I play 25nl reg and zoom tables (6 max) and seem to have some trouble with more of my marginal holdings, especially OOP, on paired boards.
I have been watching some videos on various sites and instructors do vary on their stance in these situations.
I want to give 3 different scenarios and see how people play them.
Scenario 1:
We open AQo UTG and get called by the button who is a 20/18.
Board: 722r.
Do you check or bet? Are your intentions to check and call or fold? If we bet, do we barrel scare cards and obviously A's and Q's or do you shut down? What are your thoughts as you play the hand?
Scenario 2:
We have the same hand and this time it's a more aggressive opponent who is playing 29/25 who calls us on the button.
The same questions apply. What are you thoughts on flop, turn and river?
Scenario 3:
Again we have AQo UTG and open. This time we are readless on villain on the BTN who calls.
Board: TTJr
How would you play this hand?
I know some of the questions are very broad but i am hoping to pick the brains of some of you and get a thought process in my mind to approach these situations better instead of feeling exploited every time i play these spots.
Thanks,
John.
