What was your plan when you called the flop raise?

im not folding this for 100bbs. push over the turn raise and reload if he flips KQ.

I think it is a little bit weak tight, yes, but if villain is nitty enough (and you need stats/strong reads to prove it) a fold is not abominable here.

Mcat makes the key point - why call the flop if you're folding the turn? Aggression like that on the flop will almost always be followed up with aggression on the turn from all but the biggest of monsters.

This is top pair far more often than you think. I check and push turn. If he flips KQ then suck out. Job done.

This is not my signature. I just write this at the bottom of every post.
