Cash game

Here is my input.

Based on what we know, which doesn't seem to be much, guy popped it to 10x with A2 suited, but we don't know the position. This is our only refrence for the hand in question. Based on that, here is my thoughts.

Very simple. FOLD. He has shown a wide range for any number of different positions. He could be holding AA, or as mentioned K2 suited. Another option is to call the preflop raise, hope for unders and hammer the flop. I think you might get the suited cards out, unless they hit 4 to the flush.

thanks guys.

Maybe i should tell more. It was live cash game. which is a huge difference from online. If it was online i would of smoothed called and then hammered the flop. It was live and this guy showed no sense of poker and was throwing his money around like it was pennies.

I Pushed all in B/c my read was he had one over on my tens. Knowing that I had to dodge 3 cards in the deck which overall I did. He hit runner runner flush. Fine I lost.

what gets me is; ok he bet 10x with rags and then I make it 40x the big blind. How do you call that. I guess i was low stack and he did not take me seriously. I just put the odds in and it says:

10c 10h 68.9%
kd 2d 31.1%


hitting one diamond and now pair on the flop

me ..........82.9%
donk ........17.1%


My read was right and i should of got paid!!! I guess some people do not know poker.

It doesn't matter of it was live, online, or a game with 9 dead presidents. Based on his range and the odds of an A or K hitting the flop, I believe this was a poor push spot. While yes your read was spot on, there is no debating that, there is just too big a range of cards he could be playing that you can't feel your 10's are so good that you need to push. The most action I commit at this point is a smooth call and see a flop. On top of the large range of cards he could have you are out of position for the entire hand.

I'm glad it was only profit you lost, but think you could of picked up more by calling and betting the flop with no overs.
