Re: Correct raise for information?
Am I right that you can't fold here pre-flop given that Villain only mini-raised so you have the odds?
Was the raise on the flop correct? |

Re: Correct raise for information?
I don't fold to preflop minraises. On the flop I don't raise. I call there if I don't fold. I don't want to fold if it's AKo making a continuation bet. I probably call the flop and see turn. If he bets hard I will fold. If he bets $6 I call. If he checks I will check behind aswell.

Re: Correct raise for information?
Only hand I could put him on would be JJ and that is somewhat likely considering the re-raise PF. Once he hit his set then you are WB and muck is good play.

Re: Correct raise for information?
What about AA and KK (and possibly QQ) min-raising out of the blinds? Isn't that quite typical in the $50NL? You'd still be correct to fold there, so I agree with your conclusion, just maybe not that he can only have JJ. In fact, I think that's probably one of his least likely holdings, given your hand and the board.

Re: Correct raise for information?
I'd have called preflop for a min-re-raise, with position, with AJ here. Given that you don't know anything about the opponent, on the flop it's probably close between calling and folding. Flip a coin.
