Default 88 blind steal

do you guys say 'if this guy had an ace he would raise the turn, not the flop', and then pop back rather than fold?



Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is CO with 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">6 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (4.33 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">BB raises</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (4.16 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 5.16 BB

You really want to see a showdown here. I think raising the turn and folding to a 3 bet and just calling down (bet if checked to) would both be ok.

Without reads I make this call down pretty much everytime. Usually if someone has the ace here they won't check raise the flop as they don't want you to fold. The stop and go HU a lot of the time signifies a weak holding trying to move you from your hand.
