You fold this?

I play it the same way (which isn't necessarily good news for you ).

It's easy for someone with top pair (in this case, say he has the J) to disregard the possibility you have an overpair.

He could have flopped 2 pair or better, of course, but I'm happy with your raises on flop and turn and then putting the brakes on on the river.

This was kind of a bluff post to my friends the folders. Perhaps I should have chosen a trickier hand...

Results below:
SB has Jd 5d (one pair, jacks).
Hero has Ac Ad (one pair, aces).
Outcome: Hero wins 14.50 BB.

Where are these folders?

Most of the hands I see here, the pots have been too large to fold even if you look down and find you've somehow ended up with a beer mat and a flyer to a strip club in your hand.

I'm almost certainly a folder, but you didn't catch me.

You ought to have given me a very solid hand and left me facing a bet on the turn with somebody aggressive yet to act behind me.

That would make me curl up into the foetal position and cry like a baby. However, I have no webcam above my monitor I'm afraid.

1. I cap the flop, why just call the 3-bet to raise again on the turn?

Because sometimes this tricks people into thinking you raised the flop with overcards or something and are now calling down. Then they bet the turn instead of check-calling, so you get an extra .5BB
