The hand was taken from an aggressive $2000 NL HU match.
Hero in this hand is an online friend of mine, a decent winner but overall he isn't very strong IMO.
While I was scouting some good $600 NL games, I decided to check up on my friend and that is when the hand played out.
Villain I would say is a decent short handed & head's up player at $1000 & $2000 NL.
The discussion started when my friend instantly called the bet from villain to split $600 active pot, and despite me explaining that a good player here is going to have AhXh the vast majority. Especially since hero played the turn very transparent, and gifted a dream spot for villain.
Hero wouldn't admit that this a fold given the circumsances, and that folding the nuts would be deemed "stupidly retarded" as he kindly put.
