Default Re: Fold or Crying Call?

The raise there means you're almost definitely putting him on JJ, QQ, KK, AA, or AK or AQ, right? If you know anything about the player, you might be able to narrow it down even further. For instance, if this seems to be someone who gets overly excited at great hands, he's going to cap with AA and KK every time. The turn bet is expected. I think that on ANY of the aforementioned hands, you could expect to see that turn bet, as long as there was a club in there. Perhaps we can eliminate JJ, since the Jack isn't all that likely to hold up even if he makes the flush against the three-bettor. Reasonable to assume QQ is out as well, which means you're almost definitely behind. I think that your check of the turn shows a lot of weakness, but lets be honest, your hand was deteriorating with each passing moment. Sure the turn play makes you somewhat weak, but in that situation, what choice did you have. Unless you've established yourself as a check-raising maniac, you're going to get bet there every single time. Just muck and move on.
