[NL25] paired Ace in 3betted pot

    Default [NL25] paired Ace in 3betted pot

    Villain was around 60/15 on a very small sample. The 3bet kinda ran the alarm bell against this kind of bad/passive player. Is there a way to fold here?

    $0.1/$0.25 No Limit Holdem
    6 players
    Converted at weaktight.com

    Stacks:
    UTG Hero ($41.68)
    UTG+1 Akiakamai ($26.63)
    CO spooky2202 ($25.47)
    BTN zipoli1 ($8.55)
    SB IloveMoney82 ($20.89)
    BB Surin ($29.90)

    Pre-flop: ($0.35, 6 players) Hero is UTG
    Hero raises to $1, 1 fold, spooky2202 calls $1, 1 fold, IloveMoney82 raises to $4, 1 fold, Hero calls $3, spooky2202 folds

    Flop: ($9.25, 2 players)
    IloveMoney82 checks, Hero bets $8, IloveMoney82 goes all-in $16.89, Hero ?

    Pot is laying you good odds + very loose villain. It's a call to me.

    Im opedipus bitch, the original balla.
    Why call a 3b if you intend to fold when you hit? You can't fold there. Most players don't 3b 88,77. And since there is 2 aces gone, he can only have AA 1 way. His most likely holding is either AK, AQ, or a poorly played QQ,KK. Snap call.

    Ok, thanks for the replies guys! XxStacksxX said it well. I actually kinda snap called and villain showed KK and I was amazed at villain (who seemed decent before) stupidity.

    Most of my big wins at NL25 are (after hours of grinding) more because of villain's horrible plays than my brilliant moves!
