Turn ($2.17) 3 5 Q 2

I only have 8 hands from villain, so I don't know how he's playing.

PF: His cold calling range on SB is some pp and suited brodways, I think.
OTF: He could have 33,55 and a bunch of flush draws, so I think call is fine.
OTT: He bets pot, his range is polarized, but analyzing after session I think that fold is so weak.

How do you play that hand guys?

What is your idea of a "weak fold"? And how do you think that concept helps you find the best decision?

What I mean to say is a bad fold because I think that fold is a bit tight. We aren't' blocking any flush draw combo which are his most likely bluffs.

Sorry for my english :P

It would be nice to have a better understanding of villain because most regs don't flat these small pairs in the sb against utg. This would weight his range to almost all flushdraws which we don't block with our K.

At the micros the avg person usually check calls check calls and then donks made flushes unless they have a monster draw and have like A4 or 46 of spdes. also the checkraise is 4.5x which is larger than your average checkraise and the avg micro player should be afraid of you just shoving AA and AQ and losing their flush outs. Most often you will see a set or AQ afraid of flush hitting. TBH at 5nl an argument could be made to fold flop and not tell anybody LOL

Villain plays 5nl. The pool is so huge you will never get enough data on regs to not err on the side of caution. Vllain is just trying to get a 160bb donation from someone who can't fold top pair, congrats OP on not being that guy! Once at 50nl with AQ with gutter to go with your pair and not blocking fd this is so much of an easier call because avg player wont be flatting 22 55 in the sb and will 3bet QQ more often and play draws more aggressively so your equity will probably go from 5%at 5nl to 25-40 at higher stakes in this situation.
