Default AA Hand

Pokerstars 5+Rebuys just past the rebuy period. Villan is probally on the solid and uncreative side. He likes to use his stack though. What's my turn play?

MP1 (t37020)

MP3 (t19900)
CO (t7325)
Button (t13225)
SB (t9180)
BB (t10655)
Hero (t14530)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t450</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP1 calls t450, <font color="#666666">6 folds</font>.

Bleh. That turn bet looks pretty serious, and you have one pair and a gutshot. There are so many things the villain could be representing as well. When you say the villain is uncreative, but likes to use his stack, I assume you mean he straightforwardly bets his good hands. If that's the case, according to your read, you're crushed and should fold. You don't know where you are right now, and you don't know which river cards are bad for you either, as he could have some amalgam of a made hand and a draw. You'll still be in fine chip position if you eject now.

Ok, that being said, I might end up calling this bet and making a river block of about 2K. But I would not at all be surprised to get reraised, call that and lose the pot.
Villain has two red tens.

-D.

Yeah, I've got to think you're beat here. The only hands you can really beat are something like AK or QQ, which if he was going to raise, I would think he'd do it on the flop to find out where he was if he is the solid player you think he is. He could have something like a pair plus a flush/straight draw, but I think you're behind most of the time here and should just cut your losses and fold. You've still got tons of chips to play with, so no need to throw away another 5000+ on this hand...
