Just joined table, no reads.
Insta-fold to a bet this big with bottom two against an unknown, right?

yea i think a fold is good here. Since the turn is a overcard esp being a K it makes me think that villian has better than just like 9x or 1 pair hand. Most the time ppl dont take this line on the turn w/ less than a pair of Ks and villian shouldnt be takin this flop line w/ just Kx air. So i think villian most the time has 2 pair plus here which makes it a fold. Of course all this isnt necessarly true and if we find out that villian is a laggy fish then id be more willin to get AI here.

I dont think many of the hands you beat are that likely to push on the turn (QQ-TT) and 9x.

With no reads, there is nothing you can do in this situation. I would agree that a fold would be best in this situation. Wait for a better spot, and a read on your opponent. If this guy is a complete fish, you'll know better next time, and probably take all of his monies in his small bankroll. LOL

the no read part about this makes it tough, but I play at $10NL and I'd call and probably get payed. But, I can make the assumption that most of those players blow hard.

I'm not so sure that most of the players at NL25 don't blow as well, so I probably need a read that he is good enough to fold to. And I call...and get an expensive read.

And yes, I play with a drink in my hand after a day of real work.
