Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
9 players
Villian is v. tight and not v. aggressive, so I'm pretty convinced he has big here, but this could be AK or KQ. Equally could be a set or KT. Routine fold? Call and re-evaluate? Raise?
Stack sizes:
UTG: $44.25
UTG+1: $35.15
MP1: $29.30
MP2: $53.85
MP3: $19.60
CO: $101.35
Button: $70.75
SB: $49.15
Staresy: $43.45
Pre-flop: (9 players) Staresy is BB with K 6
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, 2 folds, CO calls, Button calls, SB calls, Staresy checks.
Flop: T K 6 ($3, 6 players)
SB checks, Staresy bets $2.50, UTG calls, MP1 raises to $10,3 folds,Staresy ....

I fold that one. If he's tight and passive, then it's really a no brainer to me. I don't think he's going to re-raise with TPTK or a flush draw.

fold. even a tight player such as he would probably have to raise ak or aq preflop right? i would put him on KT suited...a limp preflop with multiple limpers (implied odds), and a raise to get rid of flush draws. if you think kt suited is out of his range here, than there's not much in his range that you do beat here.

Fold, the only way you're winning is if opp is a complete fish.

I fold. If he had more behind I might call and represent the flush if a spade falls, but with less than $19 behind he's going to feel pot committed real quick here.

Geez folding is a lot easier said than done here... esspecially against someone with 60 bbs...
I think calling might be best here, and betting/pushing the turn. If he is tight then he isn't raising a flush draw..... this is assuming you think you're ahead of his range.
What makes it tough is you say he is tight/passive.. how many hands? Stats? Usually when a passive raises you flags should go up. I think the fact that makes me want to push so bad is the fact that he isn't full... folding might be best here, but in the heat of the moment I would probably call and get it in on the turn. Maybe even a spade could scare him away? Eh...

I hate calling. Draw heavy board with only $20 behind, I would just stick the rest of the money in there and hope for the best if I'm not folding to this guy.

yeah, i think ur right.
If this guy is a real tight/passive and he's way ahead of our range though, obvious fold.
