AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

<font color="blue"> UTG is relatively unknown. he sat down just recently but seems tight/TAGish. proably decent - never limps, hasnt got out of line or shown down any crap in like 65 hands

main villain is SB. hes a typical ABC TAGfish and probably a marginal winner or slight loser(MuckeDBoy on stars if you know him).
He runs 20/12/1.5 over a large sample and ive played with him lots over the past 2 weeks. He seems okish postflop, but plays pretty timid/passive. I dont recall him ever showing down a bluff or semibluff. He doesnt get stacked very often because he seems to have monsters whenever his stack goes in, but he loses lots of small to medium pots.

I had been playing 25/20ish, taking stabs at lots of pots that looked like nobody wanted them, and splashing around quite a bit in general, but had shown down the goods for the most part when signifigant money went in. Villain knows im more solid than the average stars donk. </font>

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

There's a fair chance you're probably behind if he's timid postflop. Call and re-evaluate river, give yourself a chance to hit one of your ten-ish outs.

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

I agree with bluebear, I think you're behind but can't decide if it's 44 or a flush, flush obv more likely. Getting about 3.5:1 on a call though and you will certainly get enough when you hit your boat to call here. I think I fold a river push though UI for 65bb more.

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

holy [censored] what a terrible card... i think i call and hope to fill on river. fold to a river push unimproved

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

what do we put villain on? Given that range is betting the turn appropriate?

Given your turn bet:

Is he ever raising a worse hand on the turn here? If not then fold.

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

pretty easy call not sure what the problem is.

thats a good question... given that villains range is polarized towards
(1) small pockets pairs (ie. 44) and
(2) big suited broadways (made flushes + QX) should i even bet this turn?
i think if i had the A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] instead of the A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] it would be a much clearer turn check

if i check behind on turn do i call a potsized river bet on a blank?
and if checked to us do we b/f river?

Re: AQs vs a Reg - i hate making big folds
 

call and re-evaulate river.

what? calling seems like the worst play. this is a clear shove or fold imo.
villain is always gonna fire a huge river bet, our hand is exrtememly unlikely to improve, and if we do have the best hand many river cards kill our action or give villain hte best hand.

...unless you meant call the river if we check the turn

with 7-10 outs Calling &gt;&gt;&gt; folding, because if you hit you will get the rest of his stack unless it's a Queen.
