So this hand is from Day 2. It's very early on in the Day and i've just been moved table. To my left is Darren Rabinowitz and guy to his left seems some English guy in his 30's. Rabinowitz is an Americian pro who grinds live now. Not really following the table much and seems really busy on his Ipad. I had a bit of discussion with him and I would think he assumes i'm semi competent. I'm youngish, in a hoodie and wearing Beats.
Both guys have me comfortably covered in the hand with Rabinowitz has 40k and English guy has 60k+. I start the hand with 19k which is 19bb @ 500/1000 and this is the first orbit at new table. I had known who Rabinowitz was by goggling him after checking out the seat draw.
So it's folded round to me. I have A 2
What do we think our best line is here? I'm turn in between 3 things here. I could open folded and just wait to rip over a raise with a nice bit of fold equity. I could open for 2x and fold to any heat. Or I could just rip them in. This is a slow structure here and there is still a good bit of value in the field. e.g. My table for most of day 1, 5x was the standard open.
