Default $0.50/1 AA under pressure

Prima Poker skin
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $0.50/$1
9 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
5 folds, CO calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB 3-bets</font>, BB folds, CO calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero caps</font>, SB calls, CO calls.

I was pretty happy here, two opponents and capped preflop. I have about 50 hands on both of them, CO is 45/5 and SB is 35/5.

Flop: 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (13SB, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets</font>, CO calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO caps</font>, Hero calls, SB calls.

A little bit worried about a set now but AK and a flushdraw is also possible. Wrong to call two bets?

Turn: 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (12.5BB, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#cc0000">SB 3-bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">CO caps</font>, Hero ?

What to do now?

this is very read dependant. if they are ussually passivie id might find a fold on the turn. if they are lagtards im afraid youll have to call and hope the river is a 5 or a 2.
btw go to micro limits

Assuming standard opponents postflop, I fold the turn when the CO raises.

I think I fold after the CO raises the turn. I wouldn't be surprised to see that CO flopped a set of 5's and SB has KQ, or vice versa. Actually it looks like it might be a set over set situation and your caught in the middle.
What are their aggression factors?

CO's call/cap on the flop is more than a little ominous. If I can't bring myself to fold there due to thinking it's a flush draw, I fold the turn at least when it's two bets to me CO has a set or KQ here virtually every time.

CO's play is baffling me here. I can't put him on a hand. What does he open-limp, then call 2 cold with, that he goes gonzo with on this flop? K5 or 55 are really the only things I can think of, and passive fish usually slow down even with 2 pair with all that action before them. I know you can't just give a range of one pocket pair to a villian, but WTF? He doesn't look good enough to call/cap a draw here.

Who the hell knows about SB, but it looks like KK/QQ/KQ as he says he doesn't give a rip about CO's call/cap.

I fold the first turn raise. Some few times you're going to be up against AK and a flush draw but I don't think it's going to be often enough. I definitely wouldn't call the cap.

SB is 44/5/.8
CO is 32/5/.5

Anyone of them could have KQ or a set of fives even if AK and AQ was also possible. I think their play was a little bit to aggressive to be on a flush draw compared to what I had seen before so I decided to let it go there.
Maybe I had outs to continue compared to the odds (15/2) but it's a mess to be caught in the middle...

I think it's almost certain you are behind here and are donating. The CO flop c/rr is very distressing; continued aggression on the turn tells me these guys are not betting top pair.

Including the aggression factor stat would have helped a lot, though.
