    Default 50nl trying to fix leaks

    I suck at making folds like this. I usually don't believe it, call flop and fold to turn bet if reasonable. Is that a bad leak?

    Do I need to learn to make these folds in heads up againts non maniacal villains?

    This villain recently 3 bet AJo pre and stacked off on a high board to my AK fwiw.

    Full Tilt Poker, $0.25/$0.50 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 2 Players
    LeggoPoker.com - Hand History Converter

    Hero (SB): $216.95
    BB: $52.25

    Pre-Flop: J K dealt to Hero (SB)
    Hero raises to $1.50, BB calls $1

    Flop: ($3) J 8 T (2 Players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $2, BB raises to $9, Hero folds

    Results: $7 Pot ($0.35 Rake)
    BB mucked and WON $6.65 (+$3.15 NET)

    No and yes
    you did okay
    IMHO

    straight or two pair?
    he had 20% of his stack so i'd respect it with that flop and what you held.

    you can call flop and ship a safe turn, you don't always have to call flop and fold to a reasonable turn bet, especially on a board texture like this one

    His raise size, however, tells me he wants to get a lot of money in the middle in a hurry, was this his typical flop c/r sizing?

    I can't recall his c/r sizing but this might have been one of the first times he c/r.

    This board has a lot of draws in his ranges but also 2 pair, straight etc and I don't feel to good shipping the turn as I can get it in drawing dead or just very thin.
