I think without a strong read I would fold...

There are several nuts at 5/10 with 40 or so vpip who love to bet scare cards, but in this case it really seems like he was praying for an ace when he called on the flop.

WTF is that? Tell me you don't describe things as being "gay".

Re: do you fold KK to this turn ace?
 

Ohhhh... Hell no!


I raise and fold to a 3bet cause If you call the turn here you have to call the river. And he may just be making a "move" on the tight player. Why wouldn't he check/raise if he hit an ace? Because he's a moron? Yes that's certainly a good reason, but I still raise. No one donk bets me! Also, heads up in these situations I like to check behind with position and call a river bet, rather than bet/fold to a raise or bet/fold a worse hand that's way behind.

If you are raising this turn then you should be betting the river, otherwise you don't gain enough from the turn raise. He bet into two of you, I dig the fold.

If he calls the turn that means he has Ax and a river bet will just be called. If you're going to call here and call the river UI than you might as well raise the turn/fold to a 3bet/fold to river stop n go.

Or you can fold.


But no one donk bets me.

Ahem. I often see hands like 66-99 in these situations. That's my main reason the raise. When the ace hits they get confused with their overpair and donk. A weak ace they will usually check/call or a strong one check/raise. But the pot is small so a fold ain't bad. Raising the turn is also good for meta-game image reasons. They must fear the turn when playing against you. Fear I say! Fear!

Okay the meta-game reasons I can get behind, but the winning the most money reason seems to me to be if you aren't folding, call turn call river. If you reraise the turn, and he calls you will assume you are beat. If you reraise and he folds, you lose the potential that he will continue betting the worst hand on the river. What does the reraise accomplish aside from a FEAR ME sort of meta game satisfaction?

Re: do you fold KK to this turn ace?
 

Yea that's true. But you can get BB to fold. And you can get him to fold a hand that he wouldn't continue bluffing on the river, but a hand he will only bet if he improves. Like a pocket pair that hits a two outer.

Let's say you just call and then he checks the river. Do you bet? I vote yes.
