thats not a tough fold... AQ isnt that great... Ive had it crack plenty of times... AK gets it everytime... it was a good fold, shouldnt have been tough unless you made 2 pair

bspahn, I have to agree with your actions. I have to lay them down too. Cut your losses while you can and get him later.

I don´t think he has AK. There are $4 in the pot at the flop and he bets $2.50 (and my experience with UB is that people bet pot sized much more frequently because of the automatic "Bet Pot" button). A rational player with a low made flush also wants to get rid of people chasing a higher flush (and such a hand is not likely because of the PF raise). So I´d put him either on a made nut flush or close, a nut flush draw or something like two pair or TPGK testing the waters. Now that I think about it, I agree he could have AK and be a bit scared of someone holding a made flush, or he could be holding AK with the K in diamonds with a nice forecast.

Anyhow, it´s a good laydown.

...

You check/folded TPSK becuase the board was 3 of the same suit and some bet?

WEAK. Lead out and see how they react.

Also, super passive play preflop. You've gotta be aggressive. It's quiet clear that no one has anything better than AQ (MAYBE AK) so you've gotta drive the pot up again, isolate the original raiser and take it HU.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.
