UTG calls $4, 2 folds, Button raises to $18, Hero raises to $56, 1 fold, UTG folds, Button calls $38.

Flop: ($120) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)

Turn: ($392) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, Button calls $211.50 (All-In), Hero beats a bluff but calls anyway?

Villain is TAG regular running at 22/18/2.5 and my image should be about similar. No previous history.

Very ugly spot, but I would fold w/o any more reads.

Push flop id say.

Not sure you should 3bet AQ if you dont get it in on this board. Turn spot sucks, but really, youre good more than 25% of the time, hands like KQ is also in his range

Which range do you put him on?

EDIT: Looks like it's okay to get it in after all.

Flop push doesn't make much sense. It lets him fold everything we beat and call with everything that crushes us.

Only reasonable draw is JT and that would push instead of minraising.

I also doubt he'll minraise the flop with KQ/AQ.

My policy is to get it in these spots. I called the turn here, but I think we only beat air.

Or you call flop/call turn, or you just fold the flop.

Your flop bet is sooooo weak, I probably push myself.
