    Default Easy fold?

    I've had a few hands like this, where I have TPTK and I'm up against someone betting like that. Should I have folded the flop after his min raise? The only hands I really beat here are a lower ace and I don't think he would of made that min raised with AQ, AJ, AT. Would you call the flop minraise then see how he acts on the turn? Or just fold the flop?

    I know I should have folded the turn and the river call was done without thinking it through.

    First i'd raise more preflop.
    Second when you bet the obvious ace and get raised every alarm has to be going off. Think here. You raised. That probably means you have two face cards one of which is an ace. an ace falls on the flop you bet and get reraised right back. Striaght? set? two pair even?
    I think that i dont even call the reraise as any improvement to my hand on the turn could destack me, eg a set of aces two pair. I'd fold and show respect for someone coming over the top. It wont happen often i dont think buit here i'd fold it.
    Remember, dont bet the ranch on top pair so they say. Ive learnt that lesson the hardest way.

    If you want to play I think you re-raise straight away then you'll know exactly where you stand. If you've been raising alot betting the pot and taking it down then this could just be a tester raise from him. I dont think calling is an option for the reason that you said you're only beating a lower Ace.
    Re-raise/ fold.

    If you havnt been doing a lot of raising at the table, and get reraised here, fold em, your beat. I wouldnt even bother calling in this situation.
