    Default $25NL - AKo TPTK facing aggression from unknown

    No reads, villain has only played 5 hands and has been loose passive.

    Raise to 5xBB preflop, one caller. Lead flop for about 3/4 the pot, villain checkraises. Fairly scary board, but I still have TPTK and a gutshot draw, so I call planning to re-evaluate on the turn. On the turn villain bets $10 into a pot of $13 and I fold because two pair or a straight is a definite possibility.

    Should I have played any streets any differently?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (10 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP2 ($24.75)
    MP3 ($13.50)
    CO ($13.70)
    Button ($4.75)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG+2 with K, A. SB posts a blind of $0.10.
    UTG calls $0.25, 1 fold, Hero raises to $1.25, 5 folds, SB (poster) calls $1.15, 1 fold, UTG folds.

    Flop: ($3) T, J, K (2 players)
    SB checks, Hero bets $2.5, SB raises to $5, Hero calls $2.50.

    Turn: ($13) 6 (2 players)
    SB bets $10, Hero folds.

    Final Pot: $23

    Well IMO, there are way to many hands that have you beat, only way you are ahead is if he is drunk or something. He could have easily called you with AQ/KK/AA/JJ/TT (even KJ/JT at some of these quarter tables), in my opinion, those are pretty realistic hands he could be playing.

    Probably, but I don't think the call is quite so bad given the stupid min-raise and amount of money behind. Even if we only continuted on a Queen, it can't be a big mistake.

    Yeah, drop it like it's hot. And minraises are stupid.

    I am actually glad I got a response like this, my first 10K hands at $25nl have been shakey [5ptbb/100 with a lot of ups and downs] so it helps the confidence to know I didnt do anything absolutely retarded.
