Default This 10% Luck 20% Skill 15% Concentrated Power of Will

In this hand villain has 500 bones and I have him covered. Its been a pretty active table, I've been pwning of course, and villain doubled to 400 a few orbits ago and has been more aggressive than I would expect for somone who originally bought in for 200.

Villain raises to 20 in CO, I call in BB with A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Limper tags along as well. 60 in the pot.

FLOP: 10 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]5 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
checked to him and he bets 30, and I'm like what does that bitch bet mean? So I call (despite other dude left act [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]) Anyway he folds.

TURN: 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] I lead for 80 (120 in the pot), he min raises to 160. I push

Whaddya think? I was thinking that if he had a big hand he would want to bet more on the flop/raise more on the turn to protect his hand on a very drawy board.

Fold preflop, fold flop (or raise as a bluff). The limper is what makes me fold without much thinking preflop here, I don't want to play AJ OOP vs a raise and two opponents.

100% reason to remember the name...so he can buddy list you. lol, I'm j/k but I think you messed this hand up.

What happened OTT? Min-raise turn is fairly obvious he's married to his hand. Flop float OOP is weird, but once you pickup the draw why bet and if he raises you get blown off the hand, or make an ill-advised semi-bluff? I like check/call turn and bluff river if you have to, you can represent a lot.

Fold preflop.
Fold Flop.
Fold Turn.

His min-raise tells you he likes his hand I think you have 0 FE here

These guys don't read hands as good as you cardsharkk. I agree with your analysis that this is rarely a strong hand.

Also to repeat, re-raise pre flop.

Flop call is nasty.

Calling preflop is the worst option of the 3 you have. Same with the flop.
