After 50 hands, Hero was 54/50, BB was 48/40. No history. Hero has been giving up on hands and has a bad image. BB image is solid. Still no big showdowns.
The turn seems like a tough spot, Hero is very often barreling and BB is representing a very polarized range. Call down or fold?

BB checks, Hero bets $100, BB raises to $335, Hero... ?

these spots are always kinda weird, but you're probably better off going with the 0ev play and folding.

These spots really suck and I'm not that good at them, so I'm interested at the replies here.
I feel like I fold too much of my range here... as in most top pairs

I think it's time to find a new table or take a break.

This was the only meaningful hand in the session and happened 10 hands back (doesn't matter what hero had here). Thoughts about how this hand affects the A9 hand?

Yeah id say if that hand happened ten hands back then im definetely folding the A9 hand. I was going to say fold anyways though. It's not even really that sucky of a spot this is like the bottom of your two barrel value range.

Yeah, hero called the turn after tanking and called my shove on a Kc river. I posted this b/c I thought I wouldn't have called in his spot, and since I know he is good. We have some history together but he doesn't know me at PS.
Perhaps he was a little tilted by the double c/r, or got confused by my timing, who knows? Marginal situation in any case. I had AT in this hand and Q9s in the other hand where he folded. I guess he just put me on the wrong level based on the preceding hands.

Seems like a pretty easy fold.
