from The Rec Poker Podcast · host RecPoker: Play. Learn. Belong.
In this episode we hear from 10 players about a situation involving AQ suited under-the-gun. We hear from Professionals (Jonathan Little, Chris "Fox" Wallace, and Mike Schneider) along with Recreationals (Taylor Maas, Doug Behrens, Stacey Nelson, Steve Olson, Derek Smith, Rob Washam & host Steve Fredlund). Here’s the situation for this week; similar assumptions to last week but a different hand scenario * 10 person table in early stages of tourney * Blinds are 300/600 with 100 ante * Everyone has 30,000 chips (50 big blinds) * Every player is a standard tight aggressive player * We are under-the-gun with AQ suited and we raise to 1,500 * The UTG+2 player calls * The button raises to 5,300 * Both blinds fold and it's back on us 1) What is your typical course of action under the base assumptions? 2) Holding all else equal, how would the stack size of the UTG+2 caller have to change for us to change our action? 3) Holding all else equal, how would the stack size of the Button re-raiser have to change for us to change our action? 4) Holding all else equal, how would our stack size have to change for us to change our action? 5) Holding all else equal, how would the player type of the UTG+2 caller have to change for us to change our action? 6) Holding all else equal, how would the player type of the Button re-raiser have to change for us to change our action? 7) What other factors would drive us to potentially change our action?
