The Villian hasn't played a hand yet, and we're 4 to 5 hands in.

What's your move here?

I'm c-betting that flop always. As played, I'm folding to the turn min-raise.

Fold. If he's pulling a donk move on you with KJo, so be it.

EDIT: And yeah, I definitely c-bet that flop especially with the ace.

Easy C-bet on the flop so you avoid this situation...

Why are you not betting this flop? You raised before the flop and then an Ace came down. If you bet the flop, your opponent is usually folding.

As played, you probably have to fold the turn now, which is a shame.

wow, I'm really surprised everyone is saying to fold the turn...

maybe I'm just in a wierd mood today, but I feel like I'm on my game/advice...

that just seems like such horrible advice to me.

I really don't get why we would fold the turn.

Maybe we should've C-Bet here....but what hands call our C-Bet that we're not still beating?

Call the min-raise, hope for a cheap showdown. loose to A4o, shrug and move on with life.

(just a guess)

Also, raising PF, and checking an ace is often someone scared of an ace.

Many (some) villians are willing to min-raise a pretty big range of hands here to try to represent the trip aces and get you to fold your KQo or JJ or 44 or whatever.

I wouldnt fold the turn either. He min raised you, Id call turn and get to showdown as cheaply as possible.
