Unique steal situation. A pro and another guy who\'s pretty good.
You know the BB is a 2+2er and he knows your tendancies. He tends to think you get a little out of line on the aggressive side and as a result has paid you off for some good hands in the past. He also knows you are a very thoughtful and professional player, so he does respect your play though.
You open in the Button at a 6-handed NL table with $20 stacks (which are still close to their buy-in value) and 10c blinds. You raise with A9 to 40 cents. The SB folds, and the BB (the opponent described above) thinks for a second and calls. The flop is QJ5, rainbow I think. He checks, you bet 50 cents. He raises now $1 for a total of $1.50. The pot is $2.85 and it costs you $1 to call. What's your move and why? This hand requires a considerable amount of thought to understand, so take your time with it. |

Easy fold. You almost certainly have the worst hand and no draw. He may do this with KT or 9T, but in those cases, he's only slightly behind.

serious opinion.
if this guy was really a good 2+2 player and he took this small limit seriously, there is almost no way he has a monster here because he would likely try to bet/3bet this flop. |

[/ QUOTE ] I call the raise, bet the turn if checked to, raise the turn if bet to. flop 3 bet looks a little fishy here if you really have a monster. |
