PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (8 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

saw flop|saw showdown

Button ($37.60)
Hero ($56.95)
BB ($62.40)
UTG ($61.55)
UTG+1 ($6.15)
MP1 ($10.45)
MP2 ($58.75)
CO ($30.90)

Preflop: Hero is SB with A, K.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $0.50, MP1 calls $0.50, MP2 raises to $2, 2 folds, Hero raises to $7, 1 fold, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 calls $5.

Flop: ($15.50) 2, T, A (2 players)
Hero bets $9, MP2 raises to $51.75, Hero folds.

Final Pot: $76.25

Mp2 is running like 20/8/4.0 or something... nothing too out of line, but makes some donkish calls... is this too weak/tight.. How could I have played this flop better? I thought maybe it could be a fd, but not very likely.. I just felt so weak folding here...

i dunno, this is pretty marginal. very unlikely a flush draw and definetly is a strong hand. best case scenario your against aq and i think thats the least likely situation. either your against another AK or your toast vs TT. dont think a 20/8 raises ATo there, but you never know

I probably call. I only expect to win this about 60% of the time.

only four combinations of holecards in his range beat us. We're probably gonna split with AK a lot. Even if we only win 36% of the time its +EV.
