    Default 5$ HUSNG - AQ, got 3-bet

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t20 (2 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    BB (t1460)
    Hero (t1540)

    Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, A.
    Hero raises to t60, BB raises to t200, Hero calls t140.

    Flop: (t400) J, T, 9 (2 players)
    BB bets t1260 (All-In), Hero ??
    I have won the last 15 or so pots before this hand (mostly preflop, raising like every time from the button), so I really felt he may be playing back at me/having a pretty wide range therefore I thought about overshoving PF. Flop is a fold right?
    Where I am, I don't know, I'll never know, in the silence you don't know, you must go on, I can't go on, I'll go on.

    You're getting no worse hands to call and you're most likely getting called by a ton of hands that beat you. Risking you're tournament for 260 chips? Not worth it imo.

    Heres one of the tough lessons to learn in HU. That guy whos played like a passive nit all game? He hasnt got tired of you and is playing back, he's waited patiently for a monster and he's playing back. Its so easy when you're dominating to come up with 'reads' that suit what you want to do, but you need to be realistic.


    Of course you only need to read my last couple of threads here to see I need to follow my own advice better .
    Just dipping my toes back in.

    i think you played fine (assuming you folded flop). I'd say that he does look weak but it really isnt worth the risk imo. wait for a better spot for him to pull this same move.
