Fitz 1/2

I've ajo, it was raised to 7 in ep, I call in the cut-off/mp. About 3 callers + the bb.

Flop comes a84 rainrow or something similiar.

Ep makes it 25, 3 callers before it gets around to me.

I fold.

No with a raise of that amount and 3 callers your either against 2 pair or a set. Id imagine a set of 8s to be honest

jimbling · 03-11-2006 02:10PM

easy fold... even if you're not against two pair or a set... there's still the AK/Q.

valor · 03-11-2006 02:22PM

this is an easy fold

Yeah that's what i thought at first and it was autofold, but in reflection, most of the time (this is the fitz) a hand that has me dominated would have re-raised pf? y/n?

And the ep's raise could just be a standard c-bet?

The number of callers was off-putting but not unusual, and they could be calling with any ace to middle pair. Or a poxy two pair.

Could a call and a reevaluation on the turn be better? I do have position.

man... this fitz game sounds like a bloody goldmine.
someone would make a standard continuation from ep with 5 players - without a hand... people calling with any a and mid pairs.... that game must be a very lucrative as long as you're not in an unlucky mood

lol. there was a couple of chinese guys who were playing no fold'em hold'em that's all, don't get you're hopes up.

bohsman · 03-11-2006 03:01PM

So what were you hopeing to hit? An ep raise and 3 callers ahead of you AJ isnt looking too good preflop.

TheRock · 03-11-2006 03:31PM

No matter what way you try and analyse this, even with position (which imo is irrelevant here), a pot raise and 3 callers, the AJ goes straight in the muck.
I'd def fold AK here.

Im with Lloyd here.

Do not raise here for the love of god! Fold is best.

ianmc38 · 03-11-2006 04:14PM

I fold.

TacT · 03-11-2006 04:18PM

fold preflop and now on the flop. fold ak? No chance

phantom_lord · 03-11-2006 04:23PM

Fitzs regs replies only please...

Why? We're way ahead of everyone elses range. And we've position too.

ianmc38 · 03-11-2006 04:26PM

I think AK might make the hand interesting, though preflop we'd probably have played it differently. AJ isn't even close to a call here IMHO.

opr · 03-11-2006 04:45PM

Its a FOLD even in the fitz. I don't think its even close to anything else.

Did by any chance you fold the best hand ? :rolleyes:

monoP54 · 03-11-2006 04:54PM

A fold is good here. V. unlikely you would be getting dough in with the best of it.
As the game goes on you should find much tastier spots to throw in the tank.
Be a sport and tell us what the others held...

phantom_lord · 03-11-2006 05:04PM

It's in the second last paragraph in my blog if you're so curious...

I just wanted to talk to people whos views hadn't been altered by any degree by results based thinking.
