Default Can I call this?

Villain is 26.5/14.5/5.3 over a decent sample. He hasn't seem to be getting out of line too much. I've been very aggressive in position raising a ton of hands and cbetting a lot of flops HU.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $1.00 BB (4 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Hero ($106.45)
SB ($102.50)
BB ($86.75)
UTG ($93.50)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $4</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls $3.

Flop: ($8.50) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $5</font>, Hero calls $5.

Turn: ($18.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $7</font>, Hero calls $7.

River: ($32.50) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets $20</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $52.50

I think you need to raise the flop here. Pop it to $15 or so. That might slow him down and let you check behind on the turn. Then you can get to showdown cheaper.

As played, I think this is a fold (possibly on the turn if you're not going to raise the flop). You're beating only AJ here, and he's not bluffing on this board very often.

i raise the flop, call a shove. i'd call river if i were to take your line, i think folding is very bad.

BB could very well be making blocking bets trying to get value from an ace without having to deal with too much action, in which case there's a good chance you either have them kicked or will chop.

The best line would be to raise their flop lead though of course.

short handed, highly unlikely he made a flush or 2 pair. go with your instinct. personally i would raise the turn and bet river.

If I call flop, then I am calling river but I am a station. Also standard is raising flop here.
