UTG+1 ($45)

MP3 ($52.60)
CO ($41.10)
Button ($36)
SB ($47.75)
BB ($42.80)
UTG ($8.40)

Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q, Q.
2 folds, Hero raises to $2, 5 folds, BB calls $1.50.

Flop: ($4.25) 2, J, T (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $3, BB raises to $40.8, Hero.......

I call here pretty much every time. Hes prob sitting with QJ, KJ, something like that, expecting you to continue bet hence the check raise. Hes got quite a high aggression rating so could possibly be on a flush draw here also. Either way I think you're ahead here too often not to call.

Vi-Zer0Skill is on a distinguished road
fold.

Either he has a strong draw (probably with at least 1 overcard), and you are racing.

Or he has a two pair/set type hand.

If he is willing to c/r AI his whole stack with just one pair, then you just made a new friend

This is definately an ugly spot to be in.

Do you think he'd reraise TT/JJ OOP? I think JT is his most likely holding, or a big draw. I don't see players like this making this play with AJ. Whenever I call this people seem to show up with funky 2 pair type hands, although on this board it is somewhat more unlikely.

I guess that makes this a nitty fold..

You don't lose much by folding, a call is marginal. You are probably marginally ahead or way behind, and you are getting slightly more than 1:1. Probably a good time to fold without a better read.
