villain seems aggro competent from what i've seen. No real sample to speak of, he's running 23-15 and 11% 3b, but that;s only one 3b and and he had AA but lost in a cooler spot. He hasn't seen me particularly aggro or anything and he'll expect my range to be AK/KK/AA.

Is this a check-fold? this smashes his range so hard and my equity against his calling range is tiny. Or b-fold $8 or something - thing is that this gives immediate odds for his flush draws. Realistically his range pre is like JJ-AA, AQ+. AA is freerolling here (flush draw), KK/QQ got there, JJ is gonna check behind, half of his AK/AQ has the nut flush draw.

Full Tilt No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) - Full-Tilt Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

UTG ($67.40)
UTG+1 ($39.30)
MP1 ($96.75)
Hero (MP2) ($55.60)
CO ($46.55)
Button ($51.35)
SB ($60.30)
BB ($16)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with A, A
3 folds, Hero bets $1.75, 1 fold, Button raises to $4.50, 2 folds, Hero raises to $12.75, Button calls $8.25

Flop: ($26.25) K, 8, Q (2 players)

gross spot.

I think I would check and evaluate based on his timing/betsizing. I think it has to be a c/f a fair bit though. I expect it's QQ more often than KK.

I approve of your quadfolding.

nittery itt.

check and see what he does then decide, but it's probably often going to be a c/f.
"Once we reach a certain level of mastery, we see there are higher levels and challenges. If we are disciplined and patient, we proceed. At each higher level, new pleasures and insights await us--ones not even suspected when we started out. We can take this as far as we want--in any human activity there is always a higher level to which we can aspire."

i was really happy with my check-fold at the time, but then started second guessing myself. Thanks for the sanity check
