the all in Raise

edited March 2010 in Poker Chat


   The last few days playing i have started to come across  "the all in raise" usually when the flop comes low and dry I bet out or continue bet with top pair or two over cards and someone goes all in the first few times i can accept over pair or someone hitting but its happened a dozen or so times anyone else experience this and what is the response I called once with over pair villain had nothing but hit

    Im comming across this more and more, and its hurting my sucsess rate in tournaments. They always teand to muck so u dont know where you are, but hell i weait and i wait and tighten up, the one time i get say KQ i call hit a pair and guess what they have Aces that one time lol.

    However i teand to find if you wait out your time youll eventually catch them out, they arent that great players to have to play like that, i call it bingo myself, and well Bingo is a losing game so when you play real poker against it you always have the chance to take it down.

    i use it a  fair bit,reading between the lines you obviously dont like being raised all in after a continuation bet?,and thats why its a very strong tool in a players armoury.
    it can catch you out though,when a canny player traps you with aa etc

    For me, this is one of those things you MUST make notes on when you see it.  Did they do it as a semibluff, as a total bluff or with the stone cold nuts.I  Make notes then when they do it again I will have a good idea where I stand
