Live Poker 1/2NL

The law in Florida is $100 max buy-in (so 50 bb stack) and this was around my fourth hand at the table.

These games play at around the same skill level as .05/.1 online and I have been winning impressively in my last few sessions.

I pick up UTG+1 and raise to $10. I usually raise to $15 but there were no limpers yet.

A guy in middle position quickly reraises me to $20. Online this would be an easy fold but I feel like I get reraised pretty lightly in these games as many people are there to gambool it up. As far as a specific read on the guy, I have nothing.

What should I do and what is my plan if I am going to see a flop?

probably fold pf w/o a read or general sense of how hes playing, and if u call c/f flop since i NEVER hit with AQ in these situations.

seems silly to call off 1/5 of stack then c/f to me so id just fold pf =/. im not v experienced live tho so

allin, if you're there is to fking gambooool

what kind of flop are you hoping for?

Call and hope for a str8 draw, 3hearts on flop, A-5-7 type of flops, AQx... etc, I'd be carefull on Qhigh flops

vs some players Q or A high flop is good enough. Vs other people it means he has big hand and its probably best to fold preflop because you might get in trouble flopping TP.

Player dependent. The first time somebody does it I fold too yes.

It's more important to know the tendencies of a player than it is to play your own cards. If you have no information on the player, it's probably better to just play safe and only go with 'absolute nuts' hands AK AA KK.

Hence, I would just throw my hand away in disgust and observe him (and others) closely over the course of the session.

AQ is the biggest trouble hand in any type of 3 bet pots; doesnt even matter who was 3 bettor preflop.....
youre almost always behind vs a pretty tight regular and it seems like youre in trouble no matter what cards flop......i would fold this

easy fold, today i played 2/5 live , i openedwith AQ to about 40 (standart raise), the guy minraised. Flop was xQx, he bet pot i raise all in. he had KK.

I sucked out on the river tho ;d

PD : I was tilted btw, and KNEW he had AA or KK, but kept making bad moves -.-

If all you have is 100 in front of you with the blinds being 1/2 I get this all in. In games like these you want to double up ASAP so that you can start playing some real poker and picking off these half stacks one by one. Get it in unless $100 is alot of money to you IMO.

shove and watch him take forever to call with jj.

then hit your cards and pee like jesus on tylenol and barley sandwiches

shove for value nits

im sure those games run at like .1/.25 online level lol

arrin

never forget that the rake is destroying you; need many chip and intimidation to mitigate

lol <3 the hardrock. partypoker play money tables play tougher imo.

Why am I the only one that immediately think re-raise (after tanking) to like 45 and shove any flop?

its impossible to know what to do if I dont look at my opponent. If he looks like he probabbly have the nuts, then fold. If not, instashove for value/fliping

it was gulfstream but the play at both is around the same caliber.

max buyin in florida is $100 at any game? wtf is that shit

Easy fold if you're playing for real.
Easy all-in if you're feeling lucky.
