$50 NL 6 max - AJo - TPTK - Ugly, just ugly

[ipp147]

I only had a dozen or so hands with villain - he was 29/14

Here is the hand, where do you play it differently?

I have problems generally reading mini raises. Sometimes it means they have nothing and sometimes monsters.

I think it's very likely that you folded the best hand. His turn bet was not very inspiring. I may have raised him there and made a blocking bet on the river. But whatever you do, don't fold to those weak bets.

I agree that you probably folded the best hand. Checking the turn is fine to see what happens, but you have to bet the river there.
