Turn call is pretty bad imo. The raise shows a lot of strength for a few reasons. The ones that stand out to me are:

  1. You're UTG
  2. You double barreled
  3. You say he's playing you like 'a nitty non-hand reading reg or something'

To expand a little more on the last point. If he doesn't think you can read hands/perform analysis, how can he expect you to fold to his turn raise? You obviously have a hand that you like (you raised utg and you fired twice) and, from what you said, he already views you as kind of a nit.

Trying to bluff a nit (i.e. someone who only plays good hands) who can't hand read, seems like suicide to me.

Another reason to fold is because calling OOP puts you in awkward situations and you'll probably end up folding anyway if you don't bink an A or K.


I didn't really express myself well on the nit point fwiw. I meant more that he expects my level of thinking to be lower.
