Although a raise would have been better than a limp, why are we getting inolved at all with such a marginal hand in EP on a full table, without having enough information on the players behind us? If we open-raise and fold to a reraise, we would be bleeding chips way unnecessarily. Far better to fold these type hands until we have got to know the players better. Also, I fail to see why we should be going broke if we raised preflop and AK smooth called. These type of flop shows why position is important. Forget about leading out on the flop, check-fold and move along. It is not written in stne that you must bet again after a preflp raise. especially OOP on a scary flop. Yes, your K high might be good, and you could take the pot with a continuation bet, but you have no idea where you stand once you are called, and unless you hit a Q on the turn, you are check-folding to any sort of a bet anyway, so build up the pot any further? Even after you hit your miricle Q on the turn, you got to think you are beat if there are any strong action unless you think your oppoent is an utter donk. What could he possibly have with that sort of action (calling an EP preflop raise, calling a flop bet and showing great strength on the turn) on a board of AATQ?

Also, gut draws should never be beaten, even on a paired ace flop with strong preflop action. Basically its typical of a low stakes buyin tourney, with two donks trying to out donk each-other . No sure who played it worse. KJ suited open-limping from EP then call a decent raise, and check-calling the very dangerous flop on a gut shot when OOP, when he could well be drawing dead, or AK moving all in on the turn after it was checked to him when the only hands that could call would have AK crushed.

It would seem that this hand was played with a lack of attention to some pretty fundamental poker concepts. Calling raises with mediocre hands and stacks not deep enough for reasonable implied odds to compensate is bad enough, but to do it OOP is really poor poker. Then calling with a gutshot on the AAT board is pretty poor. He was getting 5:1 so its not as awful as the preflop play, but its really asking for trouble. He obv got lucky on the turn and then unlucky on the river - but in the end he pretty much got what he was asking for the whole way, namely to get stacked.

I was a regular poster, but that was before this newsgroup turned into a spam/religious nutters' feast, and before I started eating donks as part of my staple diet. I can vouch to the other donk that Ron and morphdonk are not the same person. Or at least, I think no. But who knows for sure? For all we know, Ron and Morphdonk and myself could be the same person with split personalities, or figments or each-other's imagination.

And, just for you, this is what I had to say before I even knew that this was in a thread he was debating on RGP (we are part of a discussion group and this hand was posted there): "limping in after a limper is ok with a hand like KsJs is ok I 'spose if the table has been really limpy (not that I am going to limp it from EP there), but then he calls a raise and plays a big pot OOP, and calls the paired board with a gutshot? Its obviously a horribly played hand. " And then later when some other members of our group posted about the thread on RGP I had this to say: "Ya, I found the thread. Its pretty awful, and it seems like he has a couple of pretty standard concepts mixed up. When you are short (he's not really short, but lets just pretend he is since its part of his thought process) you need to gamble a bit more to get in contention, which is true, but "gamble" in this context means pushing more and being more aggro preflop to pick up needed blinds and antes, the opposite of when you are deep and can gamble by speculating hoping to hit and stack someone - it seems he has mixed them together and has decided the time to speculate is when you are "short."" I never anticipated that those comments would be on RGP, so, as you can see, it has nothing to do with trying to make XaQ correct, but those are merely my thoughts on how the hand was played. Also, as one of the other members of my group very correctly pointed out - it is FAR more important to worry about your stack relative to the blinds than it is to the average stack - and 3K in chips at 25-50 is not short by a long shot.

However, I really don't care one way or the other about any argument that he has on RGP with anyone or if he or anyone else is correct about a hand.

No, I am not XaQ - my normal username on here is RonDworkin, but for whatever reason the last couple of posts I made just put my email addy in, I think google groupos may have had some kind of update or something, I don't really know. Anyhow, I don't know you and certainly am not trying to flame you or whatever, I just gave my honest assessment of the hand he posted. If you want to discuss the hand I thats ok with me.

You idiot called preflop. Terrible play. You called the flop with no odds, and no implied odds. Even if he pushes every time you hit, he's going to suck out over 20% of the time. You're drawing too slim for your stack size. You call preflop, you're an idiot. You call ON the flop, you're a fucking idiot.
