HELP! I got PWNED

Villain is TAG, something like 18/7/1.5 over about 300 hands. When this hand took place, I had him at 15/5. He has played back a few times at me, but no real memorable hands.....

what's your line?

folds.

Even if A high is ahead he can bluff you off it pretty easy. Severe reverse implied odds at work here.

yeah, this is a pretty easy fold.

also, i might have told you this before, but optimator really fucks me up.

optimator is the best, dude!!! For real

I three bet. he pushed and showed me A6.

Worse yet, he told me I had AK when he did it. Was my line that predictable?

You obviously don't do it right.

um if u are threebetting this than u can't fold, you have 25% equity in the pot!

Can you elaborate that calculation Renton. I'm seeing his pot equity at about $25, which is much less than he has to call.

im assuming he threebet it to like 50 or more, and had less than 3:1 on the call, with the possibility of having the best hand.

Ya, that's a tough one. $50 into a $150 is pretty tempting with 6 outs against anything but 8x, AA and KK.

I went to $40 and folded to the push. I was pretty sure I was drawing thin if not dead due to his perceived nittiness. I could see him smooth calling AA/KK too since it was heads up. Guess I was wrong.....
