There are 4 of us left. Top 3 get paid. Should I be calling this shove? No stats on villian, but he's been quite aggressive so far.

Folding when you have nothing is never a bad play....

How aggressive is "quite" aggressive?

I'd let him have this one, but keep raising when you are out of the blinds to steal (i'd have bet 600 personally). You've only got Ace high after all, I bet he's paired the 6 or the 2 (he'd play it a bit cuter if he paired the 10).

If he keeps doing this, you may have to look him up eventually, but first time let him have it, even if it is a bluff.

Fold, the BB has you covered and may have called with anything 4 handed to defend his blind you only beat a bluff.

Fold, I can see him having a pp and maybe made a set.

Is that how you would play a set if you flopped it?

Hard to say, but probably the appropriate amount of aggressiveness for these things.

Did I mention it was a turbo?

Yea, I think that's a little out there, but a fold is in order here. We certainly don't want to be bubbling by calling an AI w/ A high.

let him have it. People tighten up right there. Unless he's counting on that and playing loose. Either way, its not safe to call. Patience and it will pay off when he does the same thing again and you have him backed into a corner.

I called in the end. If he actually had a hand I figured he'd check and let me continue the aggression i've shown so far. Apart from maybe a flush draw I don't see why he's shoving that flop.

As dcor says, people tighten up at this point and it becomes a nice time to steal some pots. I figured that was exactly what this guy was doing.

I was right... he had QJ.

It hurt when he hit a Q on the river..

There is no need for you to be in after flop. You missed so fold. It doesnt matter how aggressive he hasbeen you have a high. This would be a donk call if you called. Just wait for a better hand.

if you call in this spot you can either be far behind or maybe in a coin flip situation, so there`s no need to call here
