i don't see any huge problem with calling him down...do you have any notes or reads on this player?

Why didn't you cap the flop?

Cap the flop, then maybe just call down if he leads into you on the turn.

He didn't re-raise you before the flop and now you've got TPTK and you want to fold here? No way, cap the flop and call down if you have to. And if you think he's playing a rush, get all the money you can out of him with your TPTK.

I should have capped the flop. Normally I would have, but I've just gotten slammed by this guy in the hand before. I only saw him raise AA and AK pf. Other than that, he was aggressive post flop w/ good hands.

I can't believe he would have re-raised me without having something better than a pair... I put him on trips.

I should have capped the flop, but I had a moment of weakness.

He ended up flipping over T /images/graemlins/spade.gif 7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif. UGH.

An aggressive player could easily have one pair or QJ for a heads up 3-bet on the flop. If he is still aggressive on the turn after you hit him again you may have a problem.

Either cap the flop or raise the turn. Then you can call him down if necessary.
