is it best to just fold preflop

craigcu12

i didn't know much about this villain (x) at the time but when he limp reraised i was already thinking myself as he is not able to semi bluff or cbet when missed it will make most villians know he has got something. the hero is just a basic calling station.

a lot of the time they play the hand back wards start of weak then get more attacking on the river. with it being AQ i can't see any value in reraising because i'm already sure they have strong hands. the problem then is I've lost control of the pot, so that makes decision very hard because villians either will weak bet jam or do the jam right away.

I don't mind folding pre

Don't call pre to fold tp

Not worried about the call pre.  Post flop I'm looking to get it in

Am i the only one who raises that flop? a few draws we can get value from. TPTK looks pretty decent facing that action too.

when you say you would go for a raise on the flop are you still willing to fold to him if he were to mimic how he did preeflop

Folding pre probably isn't bad but once you call you have to get it in on this flop imo (or be willing to).

You've called pre, flopped TPTK on a board where you can likely get action from loads of draws and weaker made hands, AND they barely have a PSB left.... just can't fold ever imo.

I'd raise the flop as Don said with no intention of ever folding... so I'd raise to like 50-60p to give him some feeling that shoving draws might get the odd fold, if he shoves, we snap, if he calls, then I'm sticking the rest in on any turn cos it'll be like £1.40 into a £2.50 pot.
