I hate these situations

Your not all that bad off against his range on this board...but I have a hard time wanting to call this since it is a pretty dangerous board.

I think you see a hand like j10 here a lot.

fold

with UTG isolating a limper preflop his hand range will likely be weighted towards reasonably strong hands; Ax, broadways, PPs

I doubt he will turn ace high into a bluff here and there aren't any busted draws

we don't beat anything and our hand is super obvious if he can hand read at all so he should be VBing light

Is it close if villain always peels with back door draws?


Hand 0: 87.216% { 33+, A9s+, Ad8d, Ad7d, Ad6d, Ad5d, A4s, Ad3d, Ad2d, K9s+, Kd8d, Kd7d, Q8s+, J9s+, T9s, A9o+, K9o+, QTo+, JTo }

Hand 1: 12.784% { AhKd }

If your going to check / call the turn I think you should just bet it, I think you should fold on the river though the only hand you can really beat is AT.

Besides peeling the flop with those backdoor Ax hands he also needs to bet twice as Leader mentions.

This is a pretty easy fold IMO

At 7:1 no, 9 or 10 to 1 and I call given the amount of draws present when he bets the turn.

Are you checking the turn because you think he will raise with a semi bluff?
