Would have called here?

[SupaMonkey]

I'm not sure if i should have folded here. During the UK day, the $10 HU can be quite challenging compared to later at night. My oppo likes to call but is quite tricky and also quite aggressive. I would not like to let him get a foothold in this match.

i don't think he's have bet so strong with the ace. and you've got  second pair top kicker. call.

[SupaMonkey]

Yes but i raised preflop and raised the flop. I have acted strong throughout. Plus what else can he do? If he bets 100 am i going to just call? Isn't that a bit transparent after all of his check-calling?

[JungleCat03]

if hes got an ace hes likely to raise the flop unless hes hit 2 pair/ or he has a set. if he has 2 pair or a set hes less likely to push allin when he makes his full house as he would want to make sure he doubled up.

He is getting desperate and has a widish range to push on the turn. I would call here. There's 380 in the pot and its 280 to call. Good enough odds for me given his likely range.

Congrats on winning anyway!

[SupaMonkey]

Ok, i see.

So you would have expected a reraise or for him to lead out into me. He must have thought that with two aces on the board, i didn't have one and therefore he could put pressure on me.

Thanks.

Insta call, unless you are playing JungleCat, then you stop and ask for a £100 sidebet that you are ahead, its all about maximising the EV

[SupaMonkey]

lol,

Ok thanks. I just had the impression that he may have trapped with the ace. Next time i'll call.
