Default Re: Blind v Blind, A-high flop

Hero folds.

I don't think there's any reason to play a large pot. There are a lot of turn cards that don't help you. Your read on the Villain is tight. Even if he doesn't have an ace he could have a bigger ten. QJs in hearts is a favorite (if unlikely). I'm not sure villain folds a draw or an ace, so Villain would have to have a ten or a nine. I think the very worst ten the villain completes with is maybe T6s. A9-98 are reasonable, only K9 and Q9 release.

My personal reasoning is I'm not sure what I'm ahead of, and if I raise, I have to either put in something like 8k and fold to a reraise? or put the villain in when I'm not really sure I'm a favorite. It seems like I can find a better spot to go to war. For me, for my game, I can't afford to really play this flop.
