When he calls the raise on the flop what do you put him on? He most likely has an ace (and will almost certainly be at least drawing with your kicker). Or he could even have trip 9's.

All-in on the turn is a bit strong IMO and I'm not surprised to see he called.

Well i put him on a weak Ace the turn check said to me A8 etc. You think the pre-flop call is ok?

I fold preflop. If I call this I'm only happy with an AJx flop. He'es likely to have a bigger ace or medium to big pocket pair. On the flop though I put him on a weak ace. I think a bigger ace will push over the top, so your probably good there.

Yes PF you have position with a good hand so it's a definite call for me. There may be some on here who would venture a reraise but not me.

With no reads I think you have to assume that he wouldn't raise in first position with a weak ace.

So you assume he wouldnt raise with a weak ace but your going to call anyway for 1/8th of your stack anyway? So your basically saying your calling this much knowing that your going in behind. Care to explain your reasoning to me?

Pf I wouldnt put him on a weak ace. However, with his line on the flop, this to me usually means a weak ace that isnt too sure of itself. Likely ahead here. Doesn't justify the pf call to me though

Yeh I think he has a pocket medium pair. You have position and you will win the hand 45% of the time.
