    Default This line screams 2p+ to me

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (5 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP ($89.05)
    Button ($98.50)
    SB ($117.40)
    BB ($75.50)
    Hero ($100)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, A.
    Hero raises to $4, 3 folds, BB calls $3.

    Flop: ($8.50) A, 4, J (2 players)
    BB checks, Hero bets $6, BB raises to $12, Hero calls $6.

    Turn: ($32.50) 9 (2 players)

    HH is borked, but villain leads turn for $25. Your play?

    If there was a FD on the flop I'd put him on that as like 90% of flop minraises lately have been vs. opponents on FD's, I've been 3betting the flop on them. But this board is dry. Only hand I could see doing this we beat is a really donkish AQ

    C/r flop with turn lead on dry board is monsterish. I'd always fold here... too nitty?

    i really dont see too many 2p in his range, but then again its hard to put him on a range without any stats or reads. bleh, just 3 bet/call flop.

    its gay but u just cant fold u have tptk ... i hate these minraises ... u hardly get them at higher stakes, they irritate the hell out of me while micro staking.

    i generally assume when i get minraised that villains range is polarized (but i usually assume this because my c-bet frequency is so high). ive seen them do it w/ medium strength hands, w/ pure bluffs, w/ monsters, and with draws, so u can't really get too much meaning out of it. since there are no draws here i call flop.

    when villain puts 27 or whatever in on the turn, you have to make your decision here if you are willing to stack off in this spot. what i mean is, if you are calling turn, you are committed to calling him on the river.

    its probably a crapshoot either way, i might just pass on it cuz i know i can find a better spot vs these types of players. but really theres no 'good' answer to this question IMO unless u have some kind of read.

    id call down

    vs an unknown theres just too many combos of Ax compared to 2pr+ hands for us to fold... tho we may feel like an idiot when he shows up with one of them
