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

i don't really have any special reads on the villian in this hand. 5/10 6-handed effective stacks around 1600 villian (utg) raises to 30, 1 fold, co and button call, i call with pocket 5s in the sb, bb calls. flop (150) J 7 5 rainbow checks to the pf raiser who bets 100. folds to me i raise to 320. folds to villian who calls. turn (790) 2 i bet 355, villian instantly min-raises, i fold. thoughts? [/ QUOTE ] Are you kidding me? I rarely minraise but one time I do is to see where I'm at with an overpair-if I get played back at I'm normally beat but I don't feel as committed as if I had put in a big raise on the turn. Seriously, you don't think this guy could have AA or KK trying to be absolutely sure he needs to release? Just saw you calling these minraises donktastic. Barring reads, I think they're a lot better than folding to any turn bet, calling a turn bet then folding the river, calling the turn and river, raising big on the turn and not folding because the pot's too big, or any other option that an overpair typically has in this spot. Do you normally just fold AA here on the turn? |

Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made
I don't play at these stakes, but I'm curious about the <1/2 pot turn bet. If I am Villain and I see somebody check-raise the flop and then lead <1/2 pot on the turn, I'd be most inclined to think one of two things:
(1) He has a monster and wants to draw me in / invite me to reraise. (2) He has a hand like TPTK or QQ that wants to get to a showdown. If the case is (1), the min-raise will get pushed against and I fold figuring I'm behind. If the case is (2), I expect that my opponent will either call and check the river, or fold right there. Given this reasoning, were I Villain, I could see myself taking this line with AA-QQ, JJ, 77. i don't see how you can possibly limit Villain's range to JJ, 77. I don't know what a <1/2 pot turn bet means at 5/10 NL, but I think that it was inviting you to get played back at (especially after the flop check-raise). This is great if it's what you want -- i.e., if you plan to call/push to his raise, but terrible otherwise. Why not bet ~500-600 on the turn? For that matter, any reason you decided against leading the flop? This seems like an ideal place for it. |

Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made
proofrock,
good post. i think leading this flop would have made the hand much easier to play. a bigger turn bet could have also prevented me from getting played back at, and since i did make this 1/2 sized pot bet on the turn i shouldn't have even thought about folding. |

Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made
is it possibly this player is tight and flat called with QQ on the flop. when the turn comes i think it might look like he wants to get the river checked and cheap. set it in there if youre going to play the pocket 5s

Re: a fold unlike any other i\'ve ever made
hey why play AA if youre ever going to fold your overpair/top set? you simply cant play this hand if youre ever going to fold it
