Jesus, that's like the nittiest fold ever.

I really don't understand why you folded that. Unless you were at a live table and the guy accidently showed his cards, I don't understand a fold. The turn check may be appropriate in a situation where you have a good read; but why did you possibly fold?

villian probably sensed weakness on your part for checking the turn...woulda called his less than half pot bet or raised based on his weak bet

Yeah I figured he had something when 2 people called my cbet. He does look like he is pretty aggressive so I should of at least called.

Just check call to showdown. Why do you fold here?

His bet is callable.

Agree above, pay him off (if he has the goods) by check/calling.

Not really understanding the whole bet pre, follow with the cbet when we flop TP, then check-fold on the turn? Not to mention, you folded to a really weak bet on turn. You basically gave him the hand. Should of stayed on course ane came out betting on turn.

Only hands we're scared of really are AQ or sets, pretty easy check/call on the turn, he can very easily take a stab at the pot with worse combos on the turn after it gets checked around.

Unless you are sure or have a read on the villain you have to call this bet. Yup i agree with fellow posters that the fold is very knitty.

This sends out a message to the table. If they notice that you tend to give up on the pot in this manner frequently players will try to bluff you off a hand if they now think they can. This is not a multi way pot. It is just heads up therefore just don't throw away top pair this easy.:hello:

I would call and reevaluate on the river.On the river i would fold if the villain shove.

yeah for sure a nitty as heck fold.

i would prob bet every street 80%, and pot control and c/c 20% or so, but never folding here
