Critique of play [/ QUOTE ] Based on description of villian the money is going in on the turn anyway, might as well have potted it unless you were intentionally baiting him, which by your next question was obviously not the case. [ QUOTE ] advice on whether to call would be appreciated. [/ QUOTE ] Is this a trick question? |

I did not want to give a free card and there were hands I was ahead of that would have made the pre flop raise and flop call. I made the $150 turn bet to find out where I was at, and couldn't get away from the all in by him. He had a set of 8's. |

Re: AQ flops top pair
Against a solid opponent checking the turn would have been better, but given your description of villian and previous hands there was a decent chance you were good.
[ QUOTE ] I made the $150 turn bet to find out where I was at [/ QUOTE ] No you didn't, you made the $150 turn bet to pot commit yourself. After your bet and his push there is $895 in the pot and $200 to you with top pair and a tilty villian with two previous bluffs all in. |

Re: AQ flops top pair
you wrote "against a solid opponent checking the turn would have been better." against a solid opponent calling a preflop raise with aq would be a mistake. here the opponent is not a solid player, so this is different.
