A6O-A9o in cash games.

[SL-247]

Do you play cash games with A6O-A9o hands? If so, how exactly do you play them?

 

[Baldy86]

i only play them in late position . i raise preflop and make a c bet regardless if i hit or not . if i face big aggression i know to fold it even when i hit my A

 

[kunkgreen]

Cash game dynamics are quite different...
so hands like A9 and A6 are 'playable' in position, sometimes in opening position in order to merge so you can sometimes run for two pair.

However, I don't play cashgame anymore, so I just give a little bit...

 

[Tigroslav]

Occasionally A5 A7 AT and as for the 6 8 9 rarely.
In late position against weak opponents.

Why A7 ocasionally and 6/8/9 no?

 

[Igor Popadyk]

in late positions you can open and see what kind of players are on the blinds

 

[Gallarado777]

in cash games it's All-in I think either 3bet depending on which player you're playing against

 

[Cooking]

For me it depends if it's a 6-max or 9-max players cash table, but usually I only play these hands if I have a good position and with the 3-bet pre flop.

Do you play cash games with A6O-A9o hands? If so, how exactly do you play them?

DO YOU mind me talking about how I play those spesific hands in utg-1 position at 9 max full ring table? Simple, I do fold. That's exactly how, many players do. Instead of throwing such questions straight like that, better you could specify the details, so you can fill out your query and get a more robust answer.
Now I don't sure if it's another blank post counter or you do care about the answers.

(also, in headsup or 3max games - usually open-raise)

 

[SL-247]

Would you mind if I talk about how I play these specific hands in the utg-1 position at the 9 max full ring table? I'm just folding. That's what a lot of players do. Instead of asking such questions directly, you could elaborate on the details so you can complete your request and get a more reliable answer.
Now I'm not sure if this is another empty message counter or if you really care about answers.

(also in heads-up or 3max games - usually open raise)

If you wrote here, the meter is no longer empty.

A9o is an open from Cutoff. A4o + is an open from Button.

I usually fold them when I get 3 bet from blinds. Too much of reverse implied odds.

Why this range? A8 A9 isn't always better than A7

 

[CaptainMooti]

Late position I'd open with a 3 bet and judging on my opponents tightness range would follow with that. Ideally flop 2 pair and hope opponent hit the Ace with a broadway kicker, try to get the stacks in before any big cards on turn or river arrive.

 

[antonis32123]

late position only . But the suited I will play them from middle position . Early position only good aces , I cannot remember last time I won with less than A10 early position lol

 

[D0nk3y Hunt3r]

I play them from all the positions, I'm just more cautious when in early.

 

[kostja007]

I would suggest to play GTO preflop. For cashgame it is not easy but possible to learn. A9 in general is a fold in in EP and MP but an open from the Cutoff. A8o I would also fold from CO position but open from the BTN. Also if you play against very tight BB and SB you could open more hands from late position. You could add A8o maybe A7o. So it also depends on your opponents.

 

[SL-247]

Thanks everyone for the advice. I read and made my own conclusions: how do I play these cards.

 

[neptunas888]

Why don't you like these cards? Good cards to play a 2.5bb raise or call a raise, especially in position. 3 betting with them is not an option, but calling a raise is justified.

 

[PatriceM915]

Yes, I play, but the actions will depend on the flop.

 

[BetterThanAvgButNotByMuch]

Trash hands that people without discipline get trapped with.

 

[Zaner]

in micro stacks i play only strong hands.

 

[mervin88]

better to stay away from those hands that will win you little pots and make you lose big pots

 

[Ripelnet]

I prefer As+ to Ao+.
I would avoid playing weak and off aces

 

[zwbb]

Medium assorted aces (A9o-A6o) are rather weak hands, which affects how they should be played on the preflop.

From UTG to HJ - you should fold all the average assorted aces.
CO - open-rise A9o and A8o can be opened.
BTN - can be open-raised with all medium assorted aces (as well as with A5o and A4o).
SB - you can open-raise with all the different aces.
