    I agree with Ghaleon here. Pot odds may dictate a call, but the action sure dictates a fold.

    I am much more likely to call this if the board is As6c5h_3s as played than Ks6c5h_3s or Qs6c5h_3s. ...

    If he was positionally aware and therefore understands poker on some level, I would be less inclined to fold to his raise here. He is the first caller to your raise after you folded off all the ...

    I don't think she's shoving KQ here. We are slightly ahead(draw, pair+draw) or behind(set, straight, 2pr) her whole range. I'd fold without much thought.

    When are you going, Ghaleon? I will be there just after the 4th of July weekend.

    Ghaleon, I agree. In a vacuum this is much closer. I probably check back this turn a fair portion of the time if villain is capable of CR semi-bluffing on the turn & pick off a river bluff/value...

    So let me see if I have this right: villain play aggressive on the flop with a wide range including semi-weak made hands and only plays aggro on the turn with a much stronger range. Despite a drawy...

    b/f makes him define his hand much more than c/f. I can't fold to an aggro player given the information available thus far. b/f > c/f > c/c IMO.

    I felt it was a feeler bet or blocker bet. I didn't feel this player was trying to induce a raise.

    With the limited read on villain I think b/f is the best course of action. I like making it more like $90.

    I think we have exhausted the thread, so I'll give the results: I folded after a little thought and show showed me an Ace before mucking. Meh is right.

    Fnord, thanks for your attn as I always find your thoughts enlightening and usually from a perspective I consider outside the box when compared to my own.

    I'm not eliminating the possibility, but my read was intended to give off the idea that she has almost no possibility of semi-bluffing or bluffing here.

    Ghaleon, there is no reasonable amount on the turn that I can bet/fold after her flop raise created a $180 pot on the turn.

    I think you missed my point. I think I am ahead of her range much more often if she is calling my bets as opposed to raising me.

    I don't think the hand is that straight forward, Ghaleon. You don't have to stack off here. This is not KK preflop 150bb deep.
