My Potential horses HH quizzes

this isn't about criticism, its more of a WWYD, and no reads is exactly how I wanted to approach the question: you tell me, if you just moved tables, if you had read of super lag, call station with little pf raising, etc. whole point is to get in the minds of the people I may consider staking at some point

Without a read I still take it for what it is, and I assume most players are shoving MP with a range that is crushed by AK. I jam over the top, and expect to be ahead enough of the time. Additionally, if we lose, our stack becomes more valuable to 3bet jam.

BTW when i say win i really mean top 3 - where most of the money is

I would have called because open shoving like that tends to be a sign of weakness.

if this was my first hand at this table and i wanted to cash then instant fold
if i wanted to win instant call unless villian is super tight
if villian has pushed alot then probably call or raise ai to ward others away
if players yet to act are AI prone then prob fold unless you NEED to win outright

there are too many variables to post this late at night

There are obviously 2 approaches to this, the "old school" and the "new kids on the block". Neither are necessarily wrong, but which one is more profitable in "the long run"? If you ask me, AK there is an easy lay down. Yes, you are going to a gunfight with a gun, but it's no AK47 (no pun intended). Best case scenario they have AQ offsuit or less (no pair), worst case is obviously AA or KK. Anything in between is a flip. (this is where the 2 approaches come in) question is, do you want to take a chance calling to a flip with A hi, or would you rather pick a better spot and be the aggressor? I say fold, and pick a better spot.

No stakes required. Just my opinion.

the only reason to raise ai is to tell the table you want to take it on alone - depending on the dynamics this is a good play or a terrible one - a flat call 'invites' others to call hoping to help you lose a player and move up the ladder - has nothing to do with the odds - its a mental move at best - but again without knowing the other players it is impossible to call

but again im in favor of the fold barring specific knowledge
