    i think i call here and check the turn. with those stats he has something nice, and i dont think he's reraising with AJ/AQ. JJ maybe?

    So you call and the turn comes an ace and he leads half his stack then wha?

    Is the morrism guy folded yeah?

    Call his raise. He bets the turn we call. He pushes river we fold. Lower kickers will usually use a bet turn, check river line. Sets will push the river.

    Opp is OOP. And that is why I call, if he checks turn I fire 2/3 pot (and fold to a raise).

    You guys should read the hand first and then answer, hero has position so he will neither "check" or "lead".

    I think you are playing your normal nitty style so if he is awake he has to think you have a good hand here. Still occasionally these guys tend to mix up those min CRs with flush draws or stuff like AQ. Still I see a set here like 75% of the time from those scary 17/5 little nits.

    this becomes a tricky situation then. c/r then leading the turn from villain screams a stong hand, and your 2 pair would still probly be beat by a set.

    this is the hand where you fold when your running good and call off your stack when your running bad. your rarely ahead here and I dont think its profitable to call against an average tag. lags and fish I dont mind peeling one off but I am not calling down with TPTK
