Trash call on the flop? Now what on the river....

[Nick C]

I probably wouldn't call the flop raise from this guy. It seems like too unfavorable of a reverse-implied odds situation. However, if you'd seen this Villain playing fast on the flop and then slowing down in previous hands, then that improves the case for a call greatly.

On the turn, I guess you're trapped. I would have checkraised instead of leading, but I think you're showing down regardless.

Given the range you give, there is this: If Villain would sometimes raise JJ-AA preflop (and, you know, lots of players do [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]), then the case for a call is damaged considerably. But if, say, AT and 64 and Td4d are in his range -- and you'd think that the two-pair hands would be, if not the AT -- then that helps.
