Villain just sat down (posted). No reads... (aside from posting like a fish [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

UTG (poster) checks, Hero raises to $1.1, 2 folds, UTG raises to $1.95, Hero calls $0.85.

UTG checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($4.25) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets $3, UTG raises to $13.05, Hero ?

I'm curious about pf too. I tend to call these min 3 bets with anything decent assuming i usually have pretty high implied odds. Possibly a leak?

I call here...He prob just paired his ace. Preflop is fine...you can't fold anything you willing to raise with to this tiny raise.

Instacall and fistpump while doing it!! You have the 2nd nut flush draw, with the nut straight....most likely you are looking at Ad, that just paired and has a flush draw to boot.

Which means you are blocking one of his outs on the flush, and besides I never give credit to someone raising in this situation. If he had the flush generally he smooth calls and looks to raise it up on the river.

Cool you guys just confirmed my thinking. Needed a sanity check. I actually feel kinda dumb for posting this now [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img].

Obv I called and he showed A7dd. Stupid results oriented thinking ftw!

I would call, but I wish you hadn't posted the results so early, since this does look exactly like the way many limp-reraising UTG posters would play their hand when they flopped the nuts.

But it's not so easy to flop the nuts, and some people do like to show up at the table and play like a spaz for a few minutes. Plus, your hand is strong enough to beat some monsters and has potential to improve. So those are the reasons that I would call.
