    Right no reads at all just moved to table vs chip leader, bit of a tough spot here. my thoughts are he can be donking with nothing, top pair, flush draw. Also could easily do with 2 pairs, flopped set so for that reason i have to fold still plenty of chips and wait for a better spot.

    He's only putting that bet in with a weak flush or top pair with the redraw to the flush IMO.  He check calls or check raises all in with a decent K  or set i'd of thought.

    I mean you can call, but your likely to be 55% favourite MAX, if not already behind.  A well disciplined fold, I think the call hoping to fade or the fold waiting for a better spot are both fine, depending on your general approach to the game.

    Even if he has 1pr and a D its an unpleasant, probably un neccessary race.

    Hi CLIO (and also dudeskin as you are both of similar opinion on the Aces hand). Can you explain why this is such a bad fold here please? I would have thought it was a closer decision than you make out, thanks.

    If he is that strong why on earth would he lead out so much into such a small pot?

    Wouldn't surprise me to see villain turn up here with a K and no diamond in his hand.

    If he's lured me in by playing bizarrely then WP to him but I'm shoving here unless I have a really strong read to tell me otherwise.

    Thanks for clearing that up. I think i have been playing the micro tables too long as that type of play is fairly standard on there. LOL.
