  Hand of the Day: A-J Laydown


A-J Laydown    Posted By: Mark Brement - August 20th, 2006
Category: Hand of the Day
Note that Onyx laid down the A-J pre-flop. This is an extraordinary play in a 6-handed game!
What was he thinking?

ANSWER:
The RR came from a SOLID/TIGHT player. (think of a real person that you can categorize like this) Furthermore, the original R came from a SOLID/Expert player.

PokerTracker statistics proved this beyond a shadow of a doubt.

The A-J ended up against JJ and AK. The lesson here is Think and analyze. In a different hand against different players Onyx might have 3-BET.

Plays like this add up to huge $SWINGS$.
