  • Meh...IMO at 1c/2c, money is going in as these guys' ranges are wider than (insert your pun here) - even given the stats.

    agreed. In my experience at those stakes, if it wasn't this guy, there'd be 3 others willing to raise with Q-10 or better. Tough to take the stats too seriously at that level, unless you have a huge # of hands. Just noticed you had 179 hands with this player. Still tough to say. I think you played it fine given the likely range of players at these stakes.
  • Even at higher stakes if my oponent has 1/2 the max buyin, i don't mind my $ going in pre with AK.
  • People regularly get it in pf at 25/50 with AK 100BBs deep. It is definitely +EV to get it in at 1c/2c 50BBs deep.
