Default Re: A9s vs. turn screwplay

[ QUOTE ]
The problem comes when you have a hand like KJ, flop Jxx, and get screwplayed. Do you fold or call down?

Lately, I would call down and get shown a set of one of the x's from the flop. Or I would fold and wonder if I was letting myself be pushed around.

I've been running into a lot of big hands and power plays that represent big hands recently. It's making me see monsters, and every time I call down, it seems like a monster is in fact what my opponent actually has.

For variety, my opponent has occasionally been semibluff-raising or semibluff-checkraising the turn and then catching on the river.

Running bad sucks.

Okay, I'm done whining now.
