Default Re: Overpair facing resistance

This is a tough hand for me. We don't know anything about BB really, but this hand really feels like we are dominated. The BB has raised or bet out at every opportunity in this hand, representing a big hand. We're kind of between a rock and a hard place here - we have a decent hand but no read on our opponent. I personally would go into calldown mode, since we have position we know that for no more than 2 bets (1 turn, 1 river) we can showdown our hand.

*grunch*
i would call the turn.
all tens and sevens look like they give us best hand against most probable overpair.
With UTG+1 limper i think BB is somewhat unlikely to 3bet pf pocket 6's-9's.

As we have at least 6 outs, and likely will win one bet on the river if we make a set/str8 against overpair. getting 1:8 he will probably have to call, so this gives us 1:7 odds to call only for those 6 outs.
i think raising doesn't accomplish anything besides bloating pot with worse hand so i just call.

The river if a blank comes is hard, but i think i would fold to another bet

So river is 5 of spades. Villain bets. Do you seriosly consider folding without any good read getting almost 9-to-1?

IŽd fold since the BB shows extreme strenght preflop and on the flop. with only 10 hands you have nothing to rely on. you are prolly against a premium pair or trips, maybe 2pair if he had 98s and is some kind of a maniac. And 4 outs to the straight is just not worth it.

Too many people at the micros will play AKo like this to make folding here without a read make much sense.
