Heads up against AA


slapdash

Recommended Posts

A theoretical problem. If you've seen it before, please give those who haven't some time to think about it. We're playing a heads-up cash game with 10/20 blinds and we both have enormous stacks, far bigger than the blinds. I raise to 50 as small blind, and accidentally show you my hand, which is: <>? &&&&&. I know you've seen it, and you know that I know you've seen it. (And in case it matters, I know that you know that I know, etc. :D) Your go. Assuming we'll each play optimally to maximize our expected profit or minimize our expected loss, with which hands should you: (a) fold? (b) call? © raise? If you think the answer is obvious, try to explain why it's obvious.

Re: Heads up against AA a) I dont think theres many hands id fold if any as i have an advantage of knowing your cards, and that u know it. hence for 50 im in! c) I dont think id be raisng with many hands either as then i lose my advantage as u could then just come over the top all in. b) Most likely as if its a flop that really suits the aa then u can get out cheaply, but if its a danger flop 3 di's or clubs or for say 789 rainbow, i could maybe extract a few chips off u, by u maybe believing im bluffing or by actually hitting my hand! so- a) probally A ? off suite (? meaning blank) B) almost all hands except - A ?, unlees the blank was suited C) AA big! probally change my mind after reading other views
