Hey Strip, I think I played with you today, ARKman88.

With no reads on Villan, I normally fold. Having said that, I was in similar situations several times today with KK/AA and stacked a bunch of people trying similar stuff with bad draws or weak overpairs like JJ. So I think a push here is justifiable.

Reads really come in handy here, do you have any?

Your flop bet was pretty weak, and your opponents raise was very strong. As played Im really unsure of what to do on this flop against an unknown, I dont think Id hate a push or how you played it. If you call you need to call the turn push, and I think you may get some more money out of worse hands there that wouldnt call a flop push. Against somebody you have some good reads or stats on this could be an easy call or fold, otherwise Im really not all that sure.

Poker would be so much easier if you could see everyone else's cards hey?

Folding overpairs hurts me deep down. But sometimes you just have to do it. Against an unknown it can really hurt.. but in hand 1 a limp/call pf and a check/raise HUUUGE is usually an indication of either 1) set or 2) fish. As Fnord said, it depends if you should call/fold here. I might be talking weak/tight here, but in this situation I would tend to fold here more than call.

I think i should have folded, but he did overbet the pot alot...I think we need a "When you're beat!" sticky...
