I\'m weak - AQ top pair, check-fold turn?
Another dilemma on the turn. Villain is pretty solid, and will attack weakness. Again I feel like checking the turn is just giving the pot away, but betting again is spewing if he has AK or a set ? When he calls the flop is that it, I give up? I feel like I've got a pattern where I bet the flop, check-fold the turn, and good players pick up on that, but maybe I'm just paranoid.

I'm pretty sure I was villian in this hand, and I had a set of tens.

A worse ace bets the turn. Bet 3/4 the pot maybe, since there aren't any obvious draws with many outs. Until you can sort out the situations, I would suggest not playing AQo UTG+1... you'll lose quite a bit of money raising and betting the flop and folding the turn. |

Re: I\'m weak - AQ top pair, check-fold turn?
I just don't see how I can get the information to know if he's on a set, possibly AK, or a worse ace. If I bet again on the turn, it has to be 30-35 and I'm getting most of my stack in with 2nd top pair. On the other hand if I check the turn, I let worse hands take it away. Certainly just folding AQo preflop is the easy solution.
