Oops, sorry Alan, I was looking at yesterday"s result.

OK then. If he"s played it decently, 33, 88, TT, JJ, QQ, KK, AA, AK, AQ, AJ, T8s, AT, A3s, A8s. He"s not short enough that he has to be making reckless plays at this stage.

If he"s played it like a loon pf and got lucky, T3, 83.

If he"s played this hand with the intention of floating you (assuming he has you as tight passive), any two cards.

With AJo though, there"s just so much that beats you so fold is still the best play. Unless you have VERY good reason to suspect he"s stealing. If you"re wrong, calling would still leave you with 36BBs - more than enough to build it back up but really not worth it.

hi_am_chris:
dont think you can call, just say nb and move on (even if it isnt really) strange bet

AMRN:
The cards are irrelevant in this play - he has position, and that"s what he"s beaten you with.

Lukybugur has defined a potential range, but the fact is he could have any two cards. He was getting better than 2:1 to call preflop in a low blind level, and had good implied odds if he caught a flop.... and if he missed the flop he would be able to play the hand in position.

Your continuation bet was standard, and if he is indeed playing position against you a floating call here is also standard if he is prepared to try and take it away from you later - he needs to find out what you do on the turn. If you have have missed the flop he probably thinks you will check the turn at which point he will bet...... the fact that the turn paired the board made his bluff a really easy one, and one that you would have difficulty calling even if you had AA.

Of course I may be talking rubbish and he may just be a donkey who called you preflop with 10 3!

Swinebag:
easy fold as you are only beating a bluff or semi bluff (and you may be losing to some of those too).

btw, I fold AJo UTG, but thats me

Given that you posted what seems like a standard hand, I reckon you made a hero call, he had 79s and missed giving you a monster pot. nh sir!!

hi_am_chris:
if he had a monster wouldnt he usually be value betting the turn rather than just shipping it in, its not like if he bets he has to go all in there.
