Calling with A high.

Postby Zmej » Mon Feb 26, 2007 4:04 am

I wonder how often you do this. I am not sureif it can create some discussion, but anyway.
Care to post examples with some history? Some thoughts?

Normally I don't like it, but sometimes a hand comes when I have a read that my A high is very often good.

My example:

Button was bluffing way too often, his CB is normally any 2. When he checked turn I was almost 100% sure that I had the best hand, and that I should check-call river. And the bigger was the river bet, the more likely I am good. (I wouldn't call a push, but overbet like x2 I would call.) Though I regret callling too fast there, it seems that he started to adjust after that hand. I should have used my entire time bank :).

400NL, SH
Preflop: Button raises to 8, I call in BB with [Ah] [Jc]..

Flop (18): [Ks] [Qd] [9h]
I check, Button bets 16, I call.

Turn (50): [9s]
I check, Button checks.

River (50): [2h]
I check, Button bets 60, I call.

Button shows [8d] [4d].
