Sorry about the layout, not too sure how to do the fancy posts

This was my first time on 25NL so I'm not too sure about flat calling preflop. The more I look at the flop bets the more I think I should have folded, correct?

Thanks for any help

Fold that frop. Your raise was great - it got you info. The info was I have a monster - he has either AA,KK 44, or the 2. And even if he is bluffing you - so what, you'll get it back from him later.

Haha, thanks for the replies/welcome. After a few minutes of patting myself on the back for winning $25 I figured maybe it was a bad call.

DaHorror...were you in the room?

What would be the worst hand you'd all call with in that situation?

QQ+, 44!, 22!!!

I may even lay JJ here. QQ I would go deep in the tank for a while (before calling and crying when he shows AA, KK!)

Seat 6: iloveyoooo ( $28.10 )
Seat 10: xTheHorrorx ( $35.50 )

Was just wrapping up clearing my $150 bonus (900 hands tho - ugh).
I didn't know you were a fellow FTR'er or I woulda given ya a shout out.

And as far as what hands I call down with - it's probably a similar range to what was stated above - AA - QQ. However, as seems popular nowadays, I am not unlikely to play passively here and just call the flop bet - see where he wants to go from there. The biggest problem with that play is that overcards are likely, and then you're hurtin. I think you played it just fine - and boy did you run into a very ballsy bluffbot LAG!

Congrats on the hand. Now don't do that again
