Fold AA for one bet?

You're probably facing a straight or a set (JJ-QQ, as she didn¨'t cap it) here. I would have folded on the flop. Of course there is a slim chance for a split if she has ATs but it really is.. slim. A bet saved is a bet earned!

Wow. I really think the forum would be better off if no one ever made comments like this. Sure his post wasn't good, but
I think your legit options are to disagree and explain why or ignore it.

I agree. If Barry weren't the type of poster who has an established history and many posts, I'd say he would be a candidate to be temp-banned. This is the type of thing that has decimated the no-limit high stakes forum and a big reason why many respected posters quit posting there. I don't feel comfortable there anymore either.

You can slam the idea, but you have to watch slamming the poster. Embarrassing posters is not a way to make people feel welcome. I'm sure at one time or another we've all made questionable posts.

Raising turn is worse than folding and no one bashed that post as much as the guy who suggested folding. lawlz.

[StrictlyStrategy]

I agree. Raising the turn is yucktown. I don't think it's worse than folding but it's defintely lolworthy.

Why would you think to fold the flop for one bet?

No winning player on this forum would fold this flop for 1 bet.

You can only fold if and only if your opponent flips his cards over and shows you AT exactly. The problem with your line of though is you're only looking to see if you are winning or not (river decision) against the price you pay to see the next card and improve. With 6 cards in the deck to improve your hand and the money in the pot already, you definitely need to see the turn. The situation is not "hopeless" as you put it. Give it some thought, and let it sink in. We're all here to learn.

I'm kinda shocked you're considering folding this hand for one bet at any point. It seems like a standard call down after the flop check raise. I don't like raising again for value at an point and I really like the turn card. She could easily be betting a worse hand for value, KQ seeming to be the most likely.

Although the more I think about this hand, if she is reasonable postflop, your hand is in quite bad shape.

Would she 4 bet you preflop with AK? The more likely she is to have 4 bet with AK, the less I like your hand. If she'd just call the preflop 3-bet with AK, then the call down is really easy.
