I agree. Raise the turn and go into call down mode if 3-bet.

I think he's less likely to 3bet you, but you're probably right. Basically, if you don't know his play well enough to exclude AK or AQ, then I think you need to see a showdown. Wheather that means forgoing a raise or raising and calling a 3 bet is up to you. I was putting the river idea out there because a 3 bet is less likely in that case even from QQ, especially if a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] falls.

Wow! I couldn't lay that down. It does look like you're up against a bigger set, but AQ and AK are possible. I'd call him down after the 3-bet.

i have no idea what the 2/4 games are like, but i cannot imagine this fold being profitable.

also, i dont like the flop check. i think youre better off calling the cr and folding the turn UI. youre going to lose alot of money in the long run by letting opponents either value bet you on the turn or push you off the best hand.

checkfolding is too weak and calling down is too loose.

hand from my OIC I feel like if I'm goign to raise the turn and fold, I should just call instead and see a showdown.

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP3 with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 caps</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (9.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
MP1 checks, Hero checks.

Turn: (4.75 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">MP1 bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP1 3-bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 9.75 BB

I think you need a massive read on this guy to make this fold, althougth the pf-cap/check like sure smells like a monster. At 2/4, I think you have to call this prick down, cuz AQ is easily in the range.

As other's have said... at 2/4 this may be a weak fold.

Also, I'd like to note that the pot isn't that small. It's 10 BB's when you folded.

No way am I folding this.

I would raise the turn, call a three-bet and call a river bet. I think you are still good a huge percentage of the time when you get threebet on the turn.

I fold too much and I am not making this fold at Party 2/4. This is absurd. Is this an April Fools' joke?
