    Apologies for HH, and laddies also doesnt export stack sizes but assume we both have max $20 buy-in. I didnt play the turn at all well (how many of you check behind?), or did I? My thought - that he was calling my flop cbet and 9/10 times here he has a ten so I fold. weak/tight?

    the only thing you beat is a bluff, so good fold.

    I think you played this one well....if you check on the turn, doesn't that just invite a bet on the river, and can you call that?

    Thanks v much all...confidence took a knock here because villain was apparently holding JJ. As gabe says all Im beating here is a bluff, and apparently a very good one at that. It seemed so obvious Im trying to protect a hand here and the all-in knocked me off it.

    Weaker K, QQ, JJ, A8... those are hands I wouldn't necessarily consider bluffs (well, maybe bottom pair TP kicker)

    Also, semi bluffs with AXh (A8h?), JQ...

    I'm not saying he should call here... but can't he make this play with TPNK?
