If the turn is a heart, or a king, queen or jack, I may have to reevaluate.

This is why I think giving free cards is bad here, your hand is good, but not strong enough to be giving free cards, there are 21 cards that could potentially cost us our stack here...

Thanks for all the replies.

I should have been more clear when I talked about folding in this post. Based on the 350 hands that I've played against villain, and because for some reason every other time the betting's gone like this I've ended up missing the flop....I've been having to fold to villain's aggression much more often than I'd like to. So he's probably thinking I'm going to fold again....maybe.

A couple of people suggested 3-betting here. My only though is, what do I do if he pushes?

This guy is NOT a stupid LAG. Do you really think that after I've folded to him so often he's going to 4-bet here without the goods?

Well I don't think you are ever folding in this spot agaisnt just about any player and especially not agaisnt this LAG.

There are only 5 combinations you are behind and at least one would have likely re-raised PF. I would think the only correct play is to push AI.

This is an easy 3-bet on the flop. I would make it $80 and shove any turn. Calling and c/r-ing the turn has its merits, though there are a few nasty turn cards (namely paint) that could suck. Villan has a larger Ace here the majority of the time I think.

wow, i can't imagine folding this, especially to a lag. i think i'd 3bet it to about 70 or so, call a push obviously, and get the money in on blank turns and we'll be pot committed then anyway, so...

You have the near-goods. However, there are many hands he could have which he thinks are the goods (A4/AK/AQ).

I had an NL100 hand I played against a maniac who more than a few times did things like raise a few limpers preflop AI with a full-stack, or limp preflop and then bet his entire stack on the flop for a 5BB pot. When I finally caught an AJ8 flop with my AJ and called his flop AI overbet, he had 88. That's called a cooler.

Indeed, when you flop top-two against a maniac and it turns out you were outflopped, you are supposed to post it in BBV. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
