Default Re: Sick of getting raised on the turn

Sure, KQ and KJ are possible holdings, although I'm getting pretty used to seeing those raised in EP. But they are just a few holdings he could have, and they have got to be greatly discounted because there's only one king left in the deck. QJ and QT are much more likely in my mind, as are medium pocket pairs (of those, only 77 beats us). If he's at all observant, he's probably noticed that you bet more often than you check when it's checked to you in position in a shorthanded pot. He therefore could have decided to semibluff the turn with hearts or JT or even a gutshot with overcard (AJo/ATo, though he might raise those preflop).

He's just too aggressive for him to be beating you very often here. Against a more passive player, you can worry about the turn raise, but not against this guy.

But think about this first. What range of hands do you put someone on with a 26.15 VPIP who limps UTG?

This could be a sample size issue, FWIW.

So I called the raise and also another bet on the river. Villan showed down A3 offsuit.

Good grief. WTF is right!!!

I've been folding to a good percentage of checkraises from 26% or so VPIP folks. This post may well make me loosen up my standards for calling down or reraising.
