Genitruc is an unknown quantity at this point
 Not sure what I think about this line. My image is aggro but not crazy.

Initial raiser only raises 6% so I don’t mind calling in position hoping to get tricky on a low flop.

3-bettor is running at 38/6. He loves to call and I haven’t seen him 3-bet before.

- HughHefn3r sitting in seat 1 with $269.36
- puolukka sitting in seat 2 with $377.65
- Hogga1 sitting in seat 3 with $142.80
- ribberfors sitting in seat 4 with $200.20
- Genitruc sitting in seat 5 with $278.36 [Dealer]
- alexruby sitting in seat 6 with $0.00 [Sitting out]

HughHefn3r posted the small blind - $1.00
puolukka posted the big blind - $2.00

** Dealing card to Genitruc:

Hogga1 folded
ribberfors raised - $6.00
Genitruc called - $6.00
HughHefn3r raised - $19.00
puolukka folded
ribberfors called - $19.00
Genitruc called - $19.00

** Dealing the flop:

HughHefn3r bet - $32.00
ribberfors folded
Genitruc called - $32.00

** Dealing the turn:

HughHefn3r bet - $76.00
Genitruc folded
when the vpip's are high and the value bets are like razors, who can be safe?

griffey24 is on a distinguished road
 I think a fold there is fine. The only hand you really beat (other than AK) is JJ.

The only problem with this line is that villain probably puts you on a mid pair type hand (after your flat call of two raises PF), so he probably thinks he can take you off your hand with a good turn bet (if he wanted to be aggro with AK)

I think a fold is fine here most of the time though. His bet doesn't look like he wants a fold.

 I should mention that the 3-bettor is not a "thinker".

The way my hands "looks" means very little in this situation imo.

 I just fold the flop if you don't want to show down. You know a tight 3-better like this isn't going to let up.

normally i dont raise for info...but if a turn bet would be too confusing, and opp wouldn't 3bet bluff, what about min-raising the flop?

actually i think folding the turn was alright, since it seems he's just playing the strength of his hand.

but ya folding the flop might've been best...i see a lot of ppl who are so donkish/passive check or bet small with a whiffed AK.
