$400 - Still learning this overpair fold thing
 

Villain is Wyern, a very good and aggressive 30/20 regular in the PS 2/4. We don't have much history in the session leading up to this hand, stolen a few blinds and the occasional 3-bet but nothing out of line. I know he likes to squeeze lightly, but not really relevant for this hand.

i dont know if its a good fold to tell you the truth. First of all the only time he got aggressive is when all the draws missed. unless he has a straight i dont see him having much of a hand. I dont think he has a set, because a that board is too scary to slow play a set like this. If he did have a set or two pair he is probly value bettign instead of pushing all in on the river. But it is good to know how to get off that top pair.

I don't think this is a good fold here. I can't see what he could hold with this line other than J8 or air (with J8 being very unlikely even for an aggro).

I probably call this as its a button open and bb repop. I'm expecting him to have me beat a decent amount of the time though with a set/AA/KK/random 2-pair/straight. It's air enough to call though.

Re: $400 - Still learning this overpair fold thing
 

It seems like consensus is to call this, and I agree with that. I feel like he'll have JJ/Tx/bluff 1/3 of the time. That being the case, if we're calling a blank river, what are we doing on the turn if he pushes, which is essentially pot?

Re: $400 - Still learning this overpair fold thing
 

Unless he is crazy aggro, I think we muck more than call.

Re: $400 - Still learning this overpair fold thing
 

Wyvern is capable of bluffing here but most tight villians are showing up with set AA/KK.

Re: $400 - Still learning this overpair fold thing
 

I don't think I call this flop bet without the intentions of getting it in a blank. Stack sizes make this fold very ackward. Because of this I am not above 4 betting preflop.
