Can TPTK be good here?
dwh103:
Although it"s only 11 hands, check-raiser has played two of them without making an aggressive action pre. Based on that limited info I"d profile that guy as passive, and the other guy as potentially a thinking player, aggro in position etc. He"s smoothed pre - I"d guess with a decent hand he doesn"t want to effectively turn into a 3b bluff (decent Ax, middling pairs etc).
Even against button only the spot is a bit icky, with what aggression I"d expect from him pre I don"t see a great deal of floats/weak showdown like pair/overs + gutshot. Any idea how he perceives you?
Anywho, a combination of that and a very aggressive action from a potentially passive player means it"s an easy fold for me. You"ve got absolutely no reason to put him on an elaborate check-raise bluff squeeze - though given you mention it I wonder if that"s what he had :p

Agree, clear fold IMO. I"d only ever be looking to continue in this spot with a good knowledge of villain tendencies. Which is part of the reason I hate zoom in the first place...
AMRN:
I folded, and I agree that without more info, I have to assume that I"m behind.... I need a very good read to be able to proceed and to commit my stack in this spot, but I don"t have that read.
My question was more about whether I could expand his range to include bluffy squeezes because the other guy had flat called on the button.... does that call open things up for Tanka to be able to apply the squeeze..... and if so, does that make it more or less reasonable for me to proceed with TPTK?
deanp27:
Fold and move on, especially at fullring and 3 ways on the flop. Really hard to proceed if you call
pokerpops:
Can"t visualise many turn cards you"re going to like enough to put more in the pot. A or J will look purty but if he"s flopped a set or a straight you"re virtually toast.
Readless just fold but hold Ctrl down and see if the hand plays out for future info.
