Hero doesn't cover. He has less than half pot behind.

Folding here is absurd. Checking will inspire 2 pair hands to check behind and I see no reason to think our opponent doesn't have showdown value. Even if we're only good here 25% of the time, it's a clear bet.

Ak gets screwed here looses its 60/40 against qj or j10.


GG.

will do

If you check, and he pushes, there's no way you can fold due to the size of the pot. You gotta push here to stop him checking behind with a hand you can beat.
