Handreading (maybe content)
UTG is a nitty TAG 13/5/1.5 and doesn't have too many moves in him. Probably a very winning player at SSNL. Even though this is 600nl the situation / opponent is the same as at $100 through $400nl.
What do you put UTG on and how should hero react? Note: $20 is the standard opening raise at the table and UTG hasn't made any adjustments just because it's 5-handed as opposed to 6-handed. Hero has been playing 22/13/2 but hasn't gotten out of line postflop.

[ QUOTE ] Hello AA-JJ. Time to fold. [/ QUOTE ] Why would he check the flop in position with either of these hands? [/ QUOTE ] Villain is a rock, not a TAG. He wanted to make sure you didn't have a 7. I have seen many rocks play their monsters this way. Another poster said he has AK. I would say that is the low end of his range, but is certainly very possible. It is hard/impossible to stack rocks without a premium hand so I am hesitant to go to war with the lowest possible overpair. If winning this hand is important to you then your only hope is to re-raise all-in that turn and pray the rock lays down his AA or KK. I really think villain laid a trap for you. Checking this hand all the way down is not a bad play against a 15/5. |

Not really... Allin3High could have a lot of hands here he could be drawing with... 89s, a club draw, etc. Giving a free card to these hands is clearly incorrect. I have a hard time imagining a winning player checking aces here.

A club draw is about it.

Your flop check is pretty weak so villain could have as little as AKs (diamonds). Call the raise evaluate again on the turn.
