Re: AQ vs. overbet - sigh
[ QUOTE ]
Most of the time the overbet is a trick. It makes you think why would he do this if hes ahead? but most of the time you are smoked.
This is probably a fold unless it is standard for him. Wait for a better spot and the nmake your move.

I got caught by that once, and it'll be the last time. I think the problem is us "2+2ers" overthink something so simple. We think in multiple dimensions, as in "what is he thinking I have? is he making a move?" But the fact is, most of the fish out there just don't give two whits about what you're holding, and are only paying attention to what they got. So in theory, they aren't trying to trick you, they're just thinking "omg I hit the jack pot! ALL-IN!"
