 There's no way I'm folding here right...just arrived at table, no information on either opponent.

I think preflop is pretty borderline, in hindsight, since I have no reads, ditching 22 is probably more profitable.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

BB ($11.95)
UTG ($80.20)
UTG+1 ($17.80)
MP1 ($50)
MP2 ($35.30)
MP3 ($10)
CO ($50)
Hero (Button) ($50)
SB ($61.40)

Preflop: Hero is Button with 2, 2
3 folds, MP2 bets $1.50, 2 folds, Hero calls $1.50, SB calls $1.25, 1 fold

Flop: ($5) 3, 7, 2 (3 players)
SB checks, MP2 bets $1.50, Hero raises to $5, SB calls $5, 1 fold

Turn: ($16.50) K (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $11.50, SB raises to $26, Hero ...

With no reads, I'm never folding this. Hope you snap called.

 What range does villain hold that cold calls this flop and check-raises the turn?

Would a range of {77,33,AsKs,KsQs,6s5s,5s4s} be acceptable (6s5s is pushing it a bit imo)? We are behind villain's range.

I don't see many villains playing their draws too aggressively and given possible combos...I give the possible sets more weight. How is this an easy shove?

I like the idea of bet/folding the turn. We are ahead of villain's calling range and way behind his raising range. Am I missing something here?

That's how winners play; we convince the other guy he's making all the right moves.

with no reads we might as well assume villain can play like any king this way
he has top purr and a backdoor flush draw or something
yes this is how fish actually think "lol overcards, guy has nothing"

there's also the retard that plays any two suited cards who flops 73s/72s to purr
there's also the A5 LOL I BLUFF U because he has outs you see

what happened to assuming someone is a fish until proven otherwise?

 I'd rather fold KK pre than fold a set post.


Girlfriend: Why are the werewolves more important than living life?!

Girlfriend: Are you on the forums doing the werewolves again?

Girlfriend: Soo... you forgot to run that errand, but you had time to werewolf? Wtf?
