Default $5/$10NL: I like my fold here -- pass the Vagisil

Read on Villain: very TAG for a shorthanded game: 20/13 + somewhat above avg for post-flop aggression.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em (NL$1000) <font color="#0000FF">(5 handed)</font> link

Hero ($1193.73)
SB ($941.85)
BB ($1060.72)
UTG ($1587.50)
CO ($1055.12)

Preflop: Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $35.00</font>, <font color="#666666">1 folds</font>, Hero calls $35.00, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($85.00) K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $60.00</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $120.00</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $272.50</font>, Hero calls $212.50.

Turn: ($750.00) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises all-in ($1220.00)</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $1970.00.

Thoughts?

Agreed - in retrospect my min-raise was questionable BUT i also thought it would get the most info out of villain b/c I doubt he would have re-raised AQ or AT...I also thought it would let me get away from my hand a little better if he re-popped me a substantial amount (which i think he only does w/ hands that I'm way behind too.) Also does not as easily let him get away from AQ, AT or the like, or even KQ if he felt like looking me up thinking my minraise smelled of weakness.

Fair enough, I probably would have called with AT or AQ [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

i think i like the fold but does anyone here find it weird that the villian in this hand 3 bet it to like 275 o nthe flop making it 155 more roughly for villian to call and THEN shoved on the turn. I think he has villian beat but man that looks so weird. Thoughts on villians line?

Why are you calling flop 3bet and then folding blank turn?

That pretty much sums it up for me - fold flop to his reraise, or put it all in on the turn. I think the former is by far the better idea.
