Starting stack 15000. Blinds 200/400
Current stack 12000
I open UTG AJ offsuit for 1000
Folds around to cutoff. 3 bets to 2800
Folds back to me I call
Flop comes out AQJ rainbow. I lead out for 3000, he shoves. I figure the only hands he is 3 betting with preflop are AA,KK,QQ,JJ,AK,AQ,1010,99.
I also figure the only hands of those that he shoves post flop are AA,KK,QQ,AQ, and maybe AK. So I conclude I must almost certainly be behind. I fold my AJ showing him, He shows AQ. Someone remarked that I tilted him by folding, but I really didnt think I could beat anything as played. Went on to chop the tournament 5 ways from there.
From mp with 88 where you made it 2060 chip leader has to realize you have a fairly tight range. I don't think he 3bets too wide of a range fearing a shove. I really like the fold on this hand although I think shoving is viable. I think a call makes it really hard to get much value post flop unless you hit a set because he is going to cbet so many flops
