Default Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made

[ QUOTE ]
i don't really have any special reads on the villian in this hand.

5/10 6-handed

effective stacks around 1600


villian (utg) raises to 30, 1 fold, co and button call, i call with pocket 5s in the sb, bb calls.

flop (150) J 7 5 rainbow

checks to the pf raiser who bets 100. folds to me i raise to 320. folds to villian who calls.

turn (790) 2

i bet 355, villian instantly min-raises, i fold.


thoughts?

Are you kidding me? I rarely minraise but one time I do is to see where I'm at with an overpair-if I get played back at I'm normally beat but I don't feel as committed as if I had put in a big raise on the turn.

Seriously, you don't think this guy could have AA or KK trying to be absolutely sure he needs to release?

Just saw you calling these minraises donktastic. Barring reads, I think they're a lot better than folding to any turn bet, calling a turn bet then folding the river, calling the turn and river, raising big on the turn and not folding because the pot's too big, or any other option that an overpair typically has in this spot. Do you normally just fold AA here on the turn?
