Default Re: Fold an overpair to a single bet?

Given your analsis you should have folded when the only hand he CAN have just outdrew you.

But lets look at this one again. You paid him off reluctantly. You should have forseen that was going to happen back on the flop. To prevent that then you SHOULD have capped the flop so long as you COULD lay this one down later. Putting pressure on the BB is icing on the cake.

I'd say by capping PF, 3-betting the flop and getting the bet on the turn IS enough information for most typical opponents. Fold this one on the turn.

But this "getting information" play only works if you ARE in doubt if you call but WILL NOT be in doubt if you raise.

Right or wrong, go with your analysis next time.
