Re: Folding trip Aces on turn to a reraise: Was this a good fold?
[ QUOTE ]
Sounds like you talked yourself into a fold. This is an easy call. If you lay down hands like this because you "might" be beat you are giving up alot of hands you would normally win with. [/ QUOTE ] OK. So, you're saying I should ignore any read I have on this player and this hand, or my standing in the tourney and put it all on the line so that I can make a call hoping to split a small pot? Like I said before, this is not a laydown I normally make. I understand that there is chance I am way ahead but only against a Queen, bluff, or semi-bluff and for my opponent to have one of these hands, he would be risking his whole tournament hoping I was bluffing just to win a small pot. |

[/ QUOTE ] Sure you should go with your read but look at what happened here. You led 115 into a 410 pot on the flop, and 200 on the turn, on a paired and coordinated board. There's alot of hands he could have been calling these weak ass bets with - why do you assume he's making an overbet push with one of the few hands that beat you? It looks to me like you led weak to look weak, he took the bait and bluffed at it, and you folded. |

FWIW, it's not necessarily a bad fold. Just because players are bad doesn't mean they always go crazy on this board without an A. I'm not advocating folding but it's far from horrible.

People will play random hands in $5s. When he pushes on the blank turn, you can expect to see a str8/flush a lot. You will be ahead here enough. SNGs are too short to fold top trips.

[/ QUOTE ] because the change of villian holding an A is slim. it's just you and villian in this pot there is only 1 A left an 3 Q's. He could think you have a Q with a lower kicker or a flushdraw because your bet on the flop was weak. |

If this wasnt SB vs BB maybe. But assuming he knows something about poker at all, hes probably raising AJ+ against the SB complete here. So you could lose to A10 or A9, split with a2-a8, and kill just about anything else. You gotta call.

If you're folding this then you might as well fold PF.
