Given his propensity for continuation bets after preflop raises, there's no way he checks any of those hands.

Am I in Wonderland or did you just say there's no way he checks AQ when he, in fact, did check AQ?

edit: just realised the table said he had AQ, but you don't know what he really had. still a terribly hand, fwiw.

Sometimes you can be too clever and often first thoughts always assume worse case scenario, if the entire table is playing tight-ass ABC poker they will hardly ever have a deuce there so you should take that out of the equasion. The easy solution is if you are unprepared to take any heat in a hand where you have flopped a rag boat then simply don't play them.

Also, like I said, I think 33 is the most likely hand he had. Granted it's only one hand, but I think that's what he had after checking the flop and turn.

Without reading all the replies, there is pretty much ZERO percent chance an ABC player checks AA/QQ here on the flop nore does an ABC player raise 33 enough to ever make this a fold. He would clearly check AQ/AK on the flop so he can't get C/R off the hand and try to catch up to middle pairs. There is no way this guy had you beat no matter what he said to you and you clearly hate money here.

AHAHAHA bet flop... c/r turn... get two outed on the river if he really has AA which I guarentee he doesn't. There is no way you can fold this as played.

this one time i had a read and it was wrong, but i still think i made a good read - what do you think?

in practice, THINKING about a fold MIGHT make sense, and the fact that you're assigning hand ranges is, umm good. but, the way live games play, this is a dumb fold. wtf. i wish you could edit your post, and change it to ask, "is this a river c/r?" i would then be a somewhat redeeming thread.


this weekend i raised ATs in mp in a 5/10 live game after a couple of limpers, bb and one or two limpers. flop Axx, i bet, bb calls, turn chk chk, riv he leads 300, and i think for like 5 seconds and call. he says "you're good" and the table looks at me like i'm insane for even thinking before calling, they're like "you had an ace wtf were you thinking for?" i'm not sure what the exact point of this story was because i haven't taken my add meds today, but it has something to do with not overthinking in live games.

wanna ride bikes?

wow, this is hilarious. seems to me like you butchered the hand and then wanted to show everyone how awesome you are for making such a "great" fold. there's no room for ego in this game bro.

it really does look like you are playing with scared money. im thinking that you put him on 33 on the flop, QQ on the turn, and of course the grand finale AA on the river. imo, this is a snap call. the only issue is whether you should be raising.

also, at my local casino there are a lot of younger guys who play the 5/5 and 5/10 no limit who love to show how awesome they are for making "big" folds. i think usually its more just because they're on tilt for having to fold another overpair to an "obvious" set. fwiw, i always tell these people i had them when they show what they folded, whether i did or not (usually not against these weak tight fishies [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]).
