Crap, that's a real checkraise.

I would probably call and see if Villain wants to bet again on the turn (even if he doesn't, though, you might still be beat). But I suspect folding is better.

Unless Villain is defending with hands like A8o (not so popular at Stars micro-NL these days, although possibly things are different at Prima), bigger aces and sets seem like a big concern here, and we're far from showdown at this point.

Fold, the rest of the hand is going to be way to expensive to continue and your almost always way behind here.

If you havenīt tangled before and he has no particular reason to not believe you and villain hasnīt struck you as donkish, I like a fold.

Ok I folded just wanted to make sure I was not making a big mistake. The problem was I did not know what hand to put him on. I just felt any better A would have reraised pre? that just left J 6 or maybe 66.
