    yea dont tell him "AT" and then fold. When I hear that I'll immediately add to my notes, "this guy can be bullied" Telling them you can fold TP makes you really vunerable to bluffs.

    Given your chipstack, I think I like a fold preflop. I hate getting in situations like this. On the flop, its push or fold and I dont think you can just check/fold that flop. Position poker is so much easier

    Default good fold.

    I agree with fjuan1, but since you chose the latter. Good fold post flop, It looks like he might either have AQ or 88. AJ,AK, and QQ are also possibilities but AK and QQ I think would have popped you back pre, AJ I think would have just been a bad preflop call. Did you have reads on this player? Was he a tight aggressive type? Does he bluff a lot, does he like to bet/raise his draws since a heart and straight draw are on the board. Overall I think your beat here, but lay it down preflop and fhuggetaboudit.

    Oh sorry, meant to put that at the end of the post.. I had just switched tables a few hands ago and didn't have a read yet.

    Default fine

    If you don't have much of a read, no need to gamble yet. Good lay down and wait for a better spot.
