    Default Are we ever folding here?

    Don't have the hand history with me but here it is. This wasn't HU, just making it easier.

    Hero - $10.00
    Villian - $10.00

    Hero (9d 8d)

    Villian raises preflop to $.50
    Hero calls

    FLOP 10c Qc Jh

    Villian bet $1.00
    Hero raises to $3.00
    Villian Raises all in
    Hero???

    no, we're not folding, although they're called idiot straights for a reason.

    If you hit the low end of your straight (7 6 5), I'd call the all-in. I'd probably give him credit for th AK.

    there are too many other weaker hands in his range that he would shove with here not to call.

    I don't know anything about the person's in the hand; it's just what I would do in that situation.

    I was about 75% sure he had AK and but I still called hoping he had AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AQ.
    Never bet on a white man in the heavyweight division!

    Dude -- on 10NL, there plenty of LAGGs with waaaay bigger ranges than that on that board. I wouldn't be surprised to see villain turn T9, KQ, KJ, any two clubs etc...

    he could show me his AK, and i doubt i fold here.
    LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

    Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

    Very true but he raised from EP and was a nit.

    You gotta specify these things!

    Even so, I wouldn't put TT+ out of his range...maybe AQ even...

    Fold preflop. You cannot play suited connectors profitably OOP. At 10NL, just play pairs and AQ+ in this spot.
