Default Fold an overpair to a minraise here? Stars $105 turbo
He was the preflop raiser. His actions corresponded to an overpair. I don't think AK minraises there. I felt like he was trying to value bet me? Thoughts?

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1500)
Hero (t1490)
MP1 (t1210)
MP2 (t1880)
MP3 (t1040)
CO (t2160)
Button (t1145)
SB (t2245)
BB (t830)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG+1 with 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="gray">UTG folds</font>, Hero calls t30, <font color="red">MP1 raises to t120</font>, <font color="gray">MP2 folds</font>, MP3 calls t120, <font color="gray">CO folds</font>, <font color="gray">Button folds</font>, <font color="gray">SB folds</font>, <font color="gray">BB folds</font>, Hero calls t90

Flop: (t405) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (3 players)

I concur, even though it is a small raise, he has shown strength, no reason to bust with this hand.

Do you put him on an overpair here? I guess there is no reason not to. I mean he could be making a move but I doubt it. I had never seen him before; or atleast he was not a regular.

I might even check/fold this, it just seems so rare to take it down.

Fold. I don't think he's stupid enough to try to bluff 2 people with AK.

What the hell? I can't believe you fold 88 given a small raise! That's about as weak as it gets! Has anyone ever explained "implied odds" to you? I guess not.
