Re: Did I blow this??? 5-10 live, Wynn
I haven't read all the responses, so I hope I'm not repeating anyone here.
I think you should check/call this flop. Live poker is far more about laydowns than online poker. Do you see this fold online at 5/10 or 10/20 NL? No, not often, and only from the very best players. In live poker, however, folding in spots like this is not uncommon. Tight, sure, but not unheard of. I'm a loose player, but I've folded AA to one bet in live play more than a handful of times. So yes, you blew it.
One other bit of advice I'd give is a reverse physical tell. It seems stupid, but a very wise, winning player told me this once and I've used it several times to induce a call. All you do is, when he's asking you questions, don't look at him, but swallow lightly and clench your jaw slightly when you know he's looking. Then resume your stone face. They often read it wrong.
