Trouble hands
Just thought Id make a thread of my trouble hands in which I get in a lot of trouble over and will over the next 6 months or so be looking at refining my play with these hands.
These are all based on my NL experience
AJo from Early position - If i put in a 4xBB raise and get reraised to at least 8BBs I find it hard to fold since I like to lead into flops - I guess from EP I will try and limp more with AJo
AJs from EP - the same situation as above really, which means I tend to run into uncordinated boards often and run into KK,QQ and even JJ quite a lot to which im a huge underdog - will probably try and limp with this hand in EP too..
AQo - EP/MP position - I tend to lead strong into the board as with AJ and if a king falls I will often try a continuation bet which doesnt work aswell against certain opponents - I need to limp with AQo early and raise in MP-late position more - Hopefully this will improve my game.
JJ and Tens from EP/MP - will limp more with these instead of getting into raising wars with QQ-AA which im obviously going to lose.
The last one Im looking at improving is AT - I tend to call too many raises with this and feel I should be limping more, especially on a tight table. I tend to find I get trapped easily with AT if the board comes X - X - A if I limp with AT I wont be leading but if I turn/flop two pair itll be disguised much more.
Just my thoughts for now.
