I have about $45 in the SB and villian has me covered. He just sat, but seemed pretty solid.

i have in SB and its folded to me. I bet pot and he calls.

Flop: [6s][2s] and pot is $3
I bet pot and he smooth calls

Turn: and pot is $9

I bet $6 and he raises to $18 and I fold.

I can't think of anything I could beat other than a badly played 99-JJ. Good fold?

Is he the BB?

edit: Just read the title of the thread.


Yea I don't fold overpairs in blind battles. You can beat a LOT more than just 99-JJ.

I think it is a good fold. Hero is betting pot both streets, I'm thinking he would just CALL if he has a small overpair. It would take a lot of balls to raise something that Hero can beat there.

I'm guessing he had a set/two-pair and decided to put in a raise on the turn when the flush draw arrived, or he got there with 75. I don't think Hero has much choice but to fold here, being OOP against a solid player and all.
