Easy fold, right?
 

I have a pretty LAG image, raising and re-raising a lot pre-flop.

100 NL. Villain has 120, I cover.

UTG raises to 3, I re-raise with KK to 9. Folded around to UTG, who calls.

Flop is Q 7 7. He bets 15, I call.

Turn is a blank, he pushes. I fold. Easy, right? I see him as tight, average aggression. I'm not beating AA or QQ, though he could be bluffing with 88-JJ, hoping I have something like AK. Should I have raised that flop?

No i agree.

I think he see your call as you had somthing and went all in beacuse he wanted a call. So QQ or AA i think he would have here.

And raise the flop why not dont se a call as a bad ide eather in position. Raise turn or bet i checked too.

He might have KK to [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think you had him. You have a LAG image. You could have reraised him preflop with a lot of different hands. He's probably thinking that you have crap. I bet he had A-Q or K-Q. He may have had aces or queens, but would he really push with a boat? I think you should consider how your image was affecting the table and when considering that, I think you have to call. He probably was tired of being pushed and wanted to push back with what he figured was the best hand.

With the LAG image you have worked to create, wouldn't this be the perfect time to show down a "real" hand? It seems to me that this guy is just trying to lose you. I don't understand him making this play with hands that have you beat. You worked hard to get paid off on you big hands, so I think you should.

I dont agree. But i have never right anyway [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Easy fold, right?
 

6-max or full ring?

Re: Easy fold, right?
 

6-max. I'm still tossed about this one. Would he really push AQ? Then again, I don't think he'd push QQ or a 7 here. This is smelling more and more like AQ to me here looking for a call from KQ or something ... or a call from a lower pocket.

Re: Easy fold, right?
 

I fold it pretty confidently at full ring. At 6-max, reraising standards preflop are lower so you could easily see AQ from villain. Its a tough spot; I think his most likely holdings are AA (6 ways) or AQ (12 ways) so, if you think he'd do it with both, you should call.

Re: Easy fold, right?
 

What about the flop play? I can't really credit him for a 7, given he called my pre-flop re-raise (unless it's 77). Isn't this a WAWB situation? I considered raising on the flop, but thought against it.

Re: Easy fold, right?
 

Assuming the flop is rainbow, its WA/WB. If you raise the flop, you have to give him more credit for a real hand when he pushes the turn (assuming he does that, or reraises the flop all-in). By not raising the flop, calling the turn is easier as he has no reason to assume you are as strong as you are.
