    Default aggro shorty

    50NL, villain is less than half stacked, running 50/20/2, but I just dont understand his play. He's raising 20%... what could he have that he limps and beats me?


    Stack sizes:
    UTG: $21.90
    CO: $17.45
    Button: $69.95
    Hero: $70.05
    BB: $36.40

    Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with 9 K
    UTG calls, 2 folds, Hero calls, BB checks.

    Flop: 2 9 3 ($1.5, 3 players)
    Hero checks, BB checks, UTG bets $2, Hero raises to $7, BB folds, UTG raises all-in $21.4, Hero ...
    <Staxalax> Honestly, #flopturnriver is the one thing that has improved my game the most.

    22, 33, and here's the kicker. KK, or AA.

    My first instinct here was, this smells like KK. amirite?

    I have no idea if you're good here. This is a limit forum. I saw 21.4 dollars to into the pot, I broke out into a cold sweat, and wet myself. Then I cried in the corner for a while trying to figgure out what crazy game you were playing. Anyway. Good luck, and I hope you got paid with top pair 2nd kicker.
    The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes

    I fold this... could be 22, 33 (the only hands I limp UTG or low-mid PP) based on villain limping UTG and being able to go AI. Villain could be sneaky with overpair (hoping someone else does the PF raise) but either way its bad news. All you really beat is a bluff. Unless you've seen villain bluffing, I pass.
