AK in early stages of tourney... fair fold???

Payney1978

Hi all, would welcome your comments on this hand I played recently. Fair fold?

It was the early stages of a £2.20 deepstack. The villain had not been too active but on the couple of occasions he played a hand he played them fast and strong without going to showdown.

I am a pretty tight player but not sure if the villain was aware of my image.

He min raised and I 3-bet the button.

It was the first time he 4-bet. I was putting him on Aces, possibly Jacks as I felt Kings or Queens would have raised bigger. I called because I had a very playable hand, the 4-bet was quite small and I had position. 

I hit top pair top kicker on the flop so am feeling pretty happy and call the lead as he could just be c-bet bluffing. Don't realy see any value in raising because I am either crushed by AA, a set of JJ or just going to fold out bluffs.

The key decision for me comes on the turn. The villain leads out again pretty big and very quickly. To me he is representing huge strength - still AA or a set of Jacks. Although the 9 means Q 10 got there I don't see him 4-betting with that.

I feel I am committing myself if I call here and don't fancy calling for the rest of my stack on the river with just one pair.

But by folding I leave myself with around 3.5k which is enough to come back from.

What would you do?

I'd 3bet bigger pre, calling min4bet pre IP is fine

Flop fine, no way you can fold TPTK.

Turn he now bets only half pot which looks a bit weak to me after pot bet on flop so I would shove now due to stack to pot ratio.

dunno how u can fold here turn is a blank id call and call river aslong as its not a heart or a jack

3b bigger pre

meh I'd probz shove the flop. If you do this you'll have the best chance of being called by a hand you actually beat because villain could put you on a straight or flush draw - it's much stronger shoving the turn because you have less fold equity and it doesn't look as much as a semi bluff and because I'm never folding to any turn card with your hand you may as well get it in now and make it look more fishyyyyy

imo you def have villain beat - full pot flop bet and then half pot turn bets are usually always either the nuts, i.e. 10Q here which is unlikely with the way the action has gone OR a hand TPTK has beat
