Final Board: 8♥: K♦: J♦: 4♥:
Hero mucked A♣: A♠: and lost (-$1.45 net)
BTN mucked and won $2.89 ($1.44 net)

I put him in JJ or 88, but he might be more random than that... Was I too tight? :f_mad: The call after the raise is weak, but I had trouble letting go of my overpair.

Thanks!

I don't have much info of the villain, but he is a 18/15 in 128 hands. _rolleyes:

Against this nit, folding the flop. They do not play draws aggressively and this is the only thing you beat

This looks more like a random TAG imo, not that nitty. Of course he can have JJ or 88, but there are some draws and AK maybe KQ in his range as well. A fold seems a bit weak to me. I would have pushed OTF.

Others?

I do not like that you call a big raise on flop to fold on a blank card on turn. You should have a plan for the hand before you start clicking the buttons...

JJ can 3bet preflop, I would put him on 88,KJs (sometimes JJ), but also QdTd,QhTh,Td9d,Th9h and maybe AhTh,AdTd,AhQh,AdQd. So make it in equilab and then you will see approximately your equity against him - if it was a call or not.
My default plan would be call flop with intention to call on blank turns like in this case. Or just fold OTF.
As nitrol said you should have a plan for future streets before you click on the button.

I agree! I have been there, done that and got the t-shirt.

Yeah, my plan didn't take into account the raise. Not much of a plan either xD

Thanks for all the advice!!

Try to build a plan for the hand before you take any action. This way you will know what to do and will not be taken by surprise, in which case most oftenly players make big mistakes that cost a lot of money.
