UTG (Hero) $100 <\/strong> Pre-Flop:<\/strong> ($1.50, 5 players) Hero is UTG with Flop:<\/strong> ($22.50, 2 players) Turn:<\/strong> ($54.50, 2 players) River:<\/strong> ($54.50, 2 players) This is a hand was played by one of my proteges. I will be commenting on the play of the hand.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n First let’s talk about the preflop play: <\/strong><\/p>\n Do you like more a 4bet\/call than just a call?<\/p>\n I think the call of the 3bet is a much better play with AQ. With a 4bet you just fold out the majority of the worse hands, against which you can realize value postflop. In general it is a better play to call 3bets with AQ, AJ type of hands, than to 4bet\/call with them. Simply put you can get more value from these hands by a call.<\/p>\n Now let’s see the postflop play:<\/strong><\/p>\n On this drawy flop I really prefer a c\/r play. If you choose a smaller c\/r size, villain will push you all in sometimes even with an AK, AJ. Eventually he will not fold a KQ either. I think the c\/r is better than c\/c, since you are out of position, and you risk two free cards if your opponent will check back the turn.<\/p>\n On the river a really bad card, the king came to the board. This is the worst card in the deck, since that card really hits villain’s range. As played, I think a river c\/f is ok here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"offtopic":[],"pokernewsarticles":[],"pokerstrategy":[33],"test2":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-138","1":"blog","2":"type-blog","3":"status-publish","5":"pokerstrategy-hand-reviews"},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog\/138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/blog"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/blog"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"offtopic","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/offtopic?post=138"},{"taxonomy":"pokernewsarticles","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pokernewsarticles?post=138"},{"taxonomy":"pokerstrategy","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pokerstrategy?post=138"},{"taxonomy":"test2","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokergurublog.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/test2?post=138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
