I saw a rock / TPA go broke with AA today after the table maniac raises 5xbb preflop, the rock flat calls AA otb, I call with 66 in the BB.
Flop comes KJ9 off, I check, maniac leads for a nearly full sized pot bet, rock calls, I fold.... turn is a 6 ($£%£$), maniac leads again, 14 into a 20 pot, rock pushes in, maniac insta calls and wins a massive pot with a set of J's... improved to a FH on the river.
At the time I am thinking to myself, wow, what a donk that 'rock' is... but having thought about it I am not sure I can get away from AA when the LAGGY player leads into you preflop and on the flop, he can so easily have top pair or an underpair, leading with a set when you know your opponent has the overpair is great, because most people just can't get away from the hand.
But the thing is, If I get check raised on the flop I think at least 50% of the time decent players can dump the hand, saving a lot of money...Statistics: Posted by Yenool — Tue Jul 04, 2006 1:59 am
