Default Two easy folds?? in 3bet pots 5/10nl & 10/20nl checkup

Easy folds or no? I'm runnning at 20/16/3 for these hands.


Hand #1: Villain is running 28/14/1.5 over 89 hands. Haven't really played a pot with him yet.

No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $5/$10

Stack sizes:
UTG: $1634
tagtastic: $1042
CO: $1414
Button: $1293.50
SB: $1171.50
BB: $666.75

Pre-flop: (6 players) tagtastic is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $35</font>, <font color="#cc0000">tagtastic raises to $120</font>, 4 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($255, 2 players)
UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">tagtastic bets $190</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $440</font>, easy fold? check behind? arrrrrr-in?


--------------------------------------------------------------------------


Hand #2: Villain is 25/19/6 - a good regular. No relevant history, but I believe he has gotten the better of me most times we've tangled in the past. He hasn't been out of line at all so far at this table. Comments welcome on all streets.

Hand 1: Usually I mean AK TPTK in a reraised pot for 100bbs you're going to get the money in, but I think this one is a bit closer and might be a fold with all things considered. He raised UTG, you 3 bet UTG+1, so it's a lot different than something like a button raise / BB 3 bet where ranges are huge from both players. 28/14 is also generally the sign of a semi passive player, at least preflop (which also means they're kind of passive postflop usually IMO). It's really close. His raise sizing seems like it's unlikely to be a draw, but it could also be a bluff occasionally too I suppose.

Hand 2: Eh, tough spot. I'd lean towards a fold but calling is ok too.

I think both are close. Good hands to post. I say fold #1 call #2. If villains were switched I would do the opposite.

Well, being a total donkey, I did the exact opposite. In retrospect I think I like a fold in hand 1 and hand 2 is really close, but I should probably look him up at least some of the time here. Possibly playing scared money at 10/20 [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Hand 1 I pushed, he showed me AA. Hand 2 I folded pretty fast, but looking back I think maybe it's a call.

If you don't feel that you can call a c/r in hand 1 maybe it would be better to check behind on the flop?
