Default Re: 3/6(6-max): Hooks

I dont know how much I like this line if I'm you ace but to be honest i'm not sure what else you can do here. If villian plays with you at all he knows you like to push people around with big hands and draws I'm assuming. The call against you on the flop usually indicates a hand like TT or a set to me. It's also very possible he has an overpair to your jacks. Given your stack he doesnt really have great implied odds calling your flop bet on a draw.

The hand goes bad on the turn of course. Given your situation though I'm not sure what else you can do. I like the turn check, since a bet on the turn probably doesn't get a worse hand to call you (other than TT of course). If UTG checks behind you he'll now pay off a decent bet on the river with his pair (since it's unlikely he has overcards or a draw, very few cards can hurt you). If he makes a strong bet here, however, the indicates to me that he has an overpair or a set, since I feel like he would check behind you with only a hand like A9, trying to keep the pot small against a tricky player like yourself.

Given the stacks though, I dont know if I would fold to this bet. Realistically, unless you are playing a fairly aggressive opponent the only hand you can beat here is TT but your image does make people do some pretty crazy things.

I guess without more info than you supplied about villain I call this bet. I'm expecting you are beat at this point though.
