Folding an overpair in a reraised pot?

    Default Folding an overpair in a reraised pot?

    Villain in this hand is one of the better players at party 100 NL, he's a standard TAG 22/11/2.33. He generally respects my reraises, and I hadn't seen him make any moves.

    I think his check-minraise on the flop is very suspicious, I can't really see QQ or JJ doing this, the minraise basicly commits him to the pot. Folding on the other hand seem weak in a reraised pot with an overpair KK/AA.

    I think it's fold or push, I called .


    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    SB ($34.91)
    BB ($80.15)
    UTG ($129.96)
    MP ($242.23)
    CO ($206.27)
    Hero ($98.40)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with K, K. SB posts a blind of $0.50.
    UTG raises to $4, 2 folds, Hero raises to $12, 2 folds, UTG calls $8.

    Flop: ($25.50) 3, T, 9 (2 players)
    UTG checks, Hero bets $20, UTG raises to $40, Hero calls $20.

    Turn: ($105.50) 4 (2 players)
    UTG calls $77.96 (All-In), Hero calls $46.40 (All-In).

    River: ($229.86) 9 (2 players, 2 all-in)

    Final Pot: $229.86

    If he respects you and is good, this is AA/set much more than QQ/JJ.
    when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

    Downswinging holla!
    I don't think folding to a nit's flop min checkraise there with KK is out of the question at all.

    I'm struggling with this myself. Last two times I got stacked I knew I was in deep shit but my hand was "too good to throw away."

    Lol this is one of those moments where his line makes it relatively easy to fold.
