    wondering where the 3 extra chairs at my 6max table came from

    Default Fold AA

    I think this was a good fold... but then again, I just bumped to $25NL at FullTilt and am still a little skittish about the $... I only had 20 hands on villain, and he ran 11.1/11.1 for that sample. Not sure how valuable that is... Anyhoo, I put him two pair KJ or a set when he RR pushed. Okay fold?

    Full Tilt Poker
    No Limit Holdem Ring game
    Blinds: $0.10/$0.25
    8 players
    Converter

    Stack sizes:
    Hero: $23.55
    UTG+1: $59.15
    MP1: $37.30
    MP2: $11.05
    CO: $19
    Button: $24.55
    SB: $13.20
    BB: $29.55

    Pre-flop: (8 players) Hero is UTG with A A
    Hero raises to $1, 6 folds, BB calls.

    Flop: 3 K J ($2.1, 2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $2.1, BB calls.

    Turn: 6 ($6.3, 2 players)
    BB bets $2.5, Hero raises to $6, BB raises all-in $26.45, Hero folds.
    Uncalled bets: $20.45 returned to BB.

    Results:
    Final pot: $18.3

    Do you really think a set plays the hand this fast? The only hand in his range that beats you IMO is KJ. I see people doing this with draws and TP often enough to warrant a call.

    <SaltLick> are you seriously losing to a blind guy

    4x RR, when I've shown solid agression on all streets... yeah, I could see it as being a set. Esp if he wants to lock it up before the river drops another spade.

    Right or wrong, here's my thought process...

    He's only played 10% of his hands so far and he chooses to call me OOP in the blind. Checks and then calls a PSB on the Flop... probes out w/ a less than 1/2 psb on the Turn and then pushes over my (albeit a little light...) raise.

    Based on his VPIP, I figure 22+, Axs or broadway hand. I figure KK is out as would have RR me PF. AK unlikely as I have AA. I can't see any underpair taking the line he did w/ a K on the board unless he setted. The only other option I could see was two pair... and KJ is in his range.

    I considered it could be a total bluff, but do I really want to risk about 60BB on that?

    Dunno... maybe I just overthunk it..... wouldn't be the first time.

    i think its pretty close to being a call. You are getting pretty good pot odds and his line is suspect. I don't think i'd fault u either way, this is a decent fold.

    Very well played hand.
    I think you are ahead very occasionally but behind almost always. You are playing a classic AK/KK line - and villain is still happy to get their stack in. To me that means that they are ahead of KK, means they are also ahead of AA (they re-raise AA pre).

    Probably a good fold. However, sometimes you're giving it up to something like T9ss.
