AQ flop fold
I don’t know anything about the Villain. BB is loose, sometimes LAG.
Sportsbook.com $1-$2 full Hero is in the middle with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] folds to Hero Hero raises Villain cold calls in cutoff SB folds BB calls Flop (3 way, 6.5 sb): T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 4[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] BB checks Hero checks Villain bets BB calls Hero folds Is this a standard fold? Something about this hand just bugs me and I don’t know what it is.

What are the reasons for betting the flop? [/ QUOTE ] You raised preflop, no one reraised, you have the best hand much of the time and even when you don't you have outs.

Re: AQ flop fold
OP, search and read on continuation bet. It's the bet you failed to make here.
Basically, it is often best to bet first-in again on the flop if you were the last preflop raiser whether you hit the flop or not. It is often for value, your opponents also miss ~2/3 of their flops. Even if they hit, you may be able represent a better hand and get folds from weak or marginal made hands (e.g. K84 board and you have AJ, they may fold 8x, 77-55, etc here). If the flop is very coordinated and you have my opponents it maybe wise to skip the continuation bet.

Re: AQ flop fold
On this flop you're likely to hold the best hand quite a bit. You also have outs, and could even get something like 22 or 33 to fold. Betting the flop here should show a nice profit if you do it 1000 times.
