good point; but are you saying you'd consider calling/capping in this spot?

its just something to note.

what throws me off is the BB's 3bet then flop check. id be happier to lay it down if he bet the flop got called in 2 spots, then checked and 3bet the sb's turn c'r.

as it went though there's a chance he could have something weaker than the ace but AQ i dont think is good enough of the time to call it down in this exact spot ... but its much much much closer than everybody seems to think (terms like "turbo muck" CERTAINLY do not apply to this fold)

you see this all the time in higher games, excessive action given with not great hands vs. a fish and 2 great players in order to get to the showdown HU vs. the fish.

mike l. also said in his post about toughest games is that those games include those that never fodl when you want them to.

that said, i still think this particular fold was ok...it really looks like a nice nut boat...but thats whatmakes me wanna call it down...live action though id fold it.
