Flop* is just a fold probably against anyone.
OTT I would raise a bit bigger both with value and bluffs.

I think his range will be 2pair+ mostly once he gets to the river here, so the question is whether he will fold enough of that range or not.
Theoretically, I think this should be a bluff always and you're probably still underbluffing.(assuming you don't call all of your Adx OTF :D)
I'm really not sure if it's worth bluffing here at these stakes.. Some postflop stats, or some population read might be very useful.

It's a low sample, but his stats say he doesn't mind folding a lot, so I'd make the bluff.
I'd bet at least potsize, probably more. Shoving might be too much if we wanna use 1 size with all our flushes.

Dont expect ppl at 5NL to fold 'cause of a blocker.
As played, raise turn bigger, follow up on the river otherwise it's burning money do to this play

I like the flop call because we have the nut BDFD because in B vs B the ranges are so wide, what I don't like is the check OTR. You should continue there almost always.

If it was me I would have 3bet pre flop with a hand like this. Is there anything wrong with that play?

Good hand to call, horrible hand to 3bet, A2o-A5o might sound good to 3bet but you'll need more playability. If you gonna 3bet bluff better do it with some suited hand.

LeeroyJenkins 9 years, 3 months ago

But you need a stronger hand to call than to 3 bet right? So what is good enough about ace rag to call?

aamadeo 9 years, 3 months ago

It's not about strength, it's about a hand you can maneuver. A6 is a stronger hand than 64s but against a 3bet calling range in SB it plays badly.

But against a SB opening range it plays fine.
