Top Pair Facing Push in Stars 150 seat WSOP
Villian had been opening somewhat loose and I had been calling in position and folding some flops to his cbet and playing back on others (mostly by calling and betting or raising the turn) . He cbet almost 100% (about 1/2 pot). I took a good size pot off of him about 15 hands ago, flop had a K, I called, turn was an A and I raised, he folded...

With villain as described, I like a call. You're going to see a flush draw or maybe even A2-5 enough of the time to make up for the occasional AA or AK you'll be up against.

Re: Top Pair Facing Push in Stars 150 seat WSOP
I would love a little more info on villain.This is such a big overbet,in my experience that usually doesn't mean strength,so yeah,I'd actually feel pretty good here. I would expect to see a weaker K or a flushdraw. If he actually has you beat here,so be it. Like jackospeed says,you'll see so many weaker hands often enough that it'll more than make up for the few times you are beat

Re: Top Pair Facing Push in Stars 150 seat WSOP
He had not made an overbet up to this point. When he made the bet, I was not sure if he was tilting b/c I kept playing back at him or if he had a big hand and wanted to look like he was tilting.

Re: Top Pair Facing Push in Stars 150 seat WSOP
Pretty certain this is either AA, AK or QQ.... either he is trying to charge a flush draw, get a weak king out, or he just wants you to think he is tilting. I don't think you are very far ahead of his range to justify calling here
