Default Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made

This bet was very likely an attempt to "freeze" you with his overpair, as he didn't want to be put to a tough decision by someone who is overplaying top pair. Looks like it pulled double duty by getting you to fold a monster as well. I think this is more likely than a bigger set given the board on the flop and his flop action. Folding is pretty bad, IMO, without some stellar reads.

I could easily see a good player do this with AA and check behind on the river. Of course, he might do this with JJ 77 too.

Lets see if we can get worse....

fyp = ?

Anyway, different stakes, but similar hand I played last night.

.25/.50 6 handed Villian has $55 and I cover.

UTG raises $2, 2 fold, Hero calls $2 on button w/77, 2 fold.

Flop - Kh 7h Js

Villian bets $1, Hero raises $4, Villian raises $6, hero calls.

Turn - 4c

Villian bets $3, Hero raises $12, Villain raises $18.

I pushed makeing him show me KK or JJ... even though it was very likely he had one of those hands. Do I need to fold here for the same reasons you did?

-TripKings

P.S. If this is a completely different and a hyjack by a donk-moron please tell me to go to the kiddie forum and ignore this post.
