You had the worst hand I think. There are no draws, so I can't see what he's semi bluffing. He might just be a donk, and is doing this with Ax.

With no reads I don't know how you can assume he's bluffing here and make this call with crap pot odds and 2 outs if you're wrong.

I think it's likely he flopped a set or something and is praying you have AK. You're new to the table after all, he fully expects AK/AQ to call there. There's not even a draw he can be semibluffing.

You got out of this one fairly unscathed. Good fold, don't look back.

I would say its very unlikely your opponent flopped a set. Less than 10%.

He has a weak ace or semi-bluffing, either of which he does not want to be called and using his stack to out muscle you. Probably it is the former. I would have mucked too and wait for a better spot.

A good player lays this down.

You raised PF. I think we can assume villian would think there's a good chance you have an ace, so open pushing on his part would be real dumb here... Unless he smooth called like AK/AQ/Aj or something.
