Calling an all-in with A9 vs a tilty LAG donk at 30BBs
May 17, 2009 - 19:35
Do we do it? I just lost a match after having the lead over a LAG donk who was clearly getting frustrated after losing so many big pots, and he shoved his 900 chip stack with KQ at 15/30 and I called with A9. Queen hit, whatever. Versus these types of players - the type who eventually beat you by chasing their gutshot to the river - should we just wait to take it to the flop and have them make their mistakes there rather than flipping 30 BBs with an ace?
Thanks Ry (and Primo who answered in his 2p2 well thread). I guess it did end up being a good call, just bad result.
