OK, before anything.

I have 140 hands with VILLAN. His vpip is 20.27%, pfr is ZERO. What I would normally do is re-raise and fold if they played back. But the pre-flop re-raise and flop bet couldn't feel any fishier so I opted to fold.

Is this a standard fold against him? Or should I have re-raised and folded to another raise? I was considering just calling the flop and see what the turn brings, I have position. But I felt like I saved atleast $7.00 by not going any further.

Thoughts?

I like it. It looks weird, but I think this is just an example of using PT well.

I think your best bet is to copy and paste.

BRILLIANT! Don't forget to mention pressing control and c at the the same time, or it won't work...
P.S. Just to avoid being too trolly...I think this is a decent fold though I'm far from attuned to the psychology of a 100-NL player...those guys are nuts.

When you raise preflop and then get reraised chances are the other guy has AA, KK, QQ or AK.

You can only beat one of those. Good fold. People lose their stack over and over again in situations like these. An overpair doesnt mean much here.

If you want to be Mr Aggressive you could make a big reraise or move in and hope either he has AK (which is possible since he bet so small on the flop) or he will fold QQ, but I dont recommend it.
