OK, I have an example which I think is very interesting, although I don't have a specific hand to show.

Let's say you limp UTG with and get two callers (probably BB and SB).

Flop:

You check, someone bets pot and you call with only two people left.

Turn:

What would you do if you bet pot and get re-raised 3-4 times the amount you bet? It's a classic situation where it's possible that you have only 7 or 8 outs (the could result in a full house, or the player could already have a flush), but in many cases 11 outs. Do you respond by shoving or call to see the river? Let's also say for the sake of argument that you are facing a big stack.

I've found myself in this situation a few times and I can't say it's easy.

The first problem is that there is no way you could be up against a hand like KK, QQ or JJ. It's also kind of unlikely to be up against trips. The second problem is, if the player has two pair and the river pairs the board, you don't know if you have higher two pair or if you ran into a full house.

So, I have a poll for you guys.
How would you act on the turn?
Fold
Call
All-in

You limp AA from UTG??That strategy was suggested by Doyle Brunson at Super System hundred years ago... if you want to play AA in a tricky way, just call a 3bet, dont limp with them.

Of course I don't limp with it every time, but you want to mix it up. If it's a 6p table and you are under the gun with aces, chances are that someone will make a play with or without a good hand.

The thing is i NEVER limp if im first in, being OOP without having iniciative its out of discussion for me. So i cant mix it with other hands.

Uribefache

every street is an opportunity to do more big the pot so imagine this:
CO a player 25/20
SB a player 30/20
BB a player 40/25
are you going to raise 1st? or are you going to wait for a 3bet?
SB raise 4 blinds
you: 3bet to 10/11 blinds or 12 if has high % of call to 3bet.
= the case of ioi seems to be with guys with low PFR so its much better be the 1st into raise.
always the tracker will give you the best decision for ea hand.
I think what the best choise there is a fold, because i didnt see any pfr so imagine this:

if:
SB has high pfr
BB has high pfr
they re going to raise with a pair in hand so we can discard the set,
if:
SB has low pfr
BB has low pfr
they are going to pay with a pair in hand so there we can suspect from a set.
they are going to pay to complete the blind with suited cards and too they re going to complete or check with a hand like 7/9 or 6/8

I think the poll is flawed because I wouldn't necessarily bet the pot on the turn. If I was out of position, I would probably check to the bettor (the stronger the player is, the more inclined I am to check). If he checks to me on the turn, that would be another matter of course. But let's say you did bet the pot on the turn, I think it's a pretty easy fold, unless you are so deep that you have expressed odds of calling (as you can't count your implied odds for very much, if the fourth hearts land, and you have the ace of hearts.)
