Good fold? I don't think 2p like A2 / A3 / A4 play like this, nor TP, so was probably facing A5 / 56 / 57?

Hi Tosh5457,
The problem here is that AK and AQ even AJ can play like this.
If he has 55 it is just a cooler, but for me, I'm raising the turn and suffering the consequences (or taking his chips)

Note: I lose a lot this way :coolface:

Bizarre hand? Post it in Hand of the Day!!

Yeh, agree with Vorpal. Those turn min-raises are the nuts (literally), but 33 is close to the top of your range (besides 55, A5s, 75s, 65s I guess).
He can mix check/calls and check/raises OTF with two pair (A3s, A2s) because he doesn't have AA in his range.
A4s is possible too.
River price is not terrible too.
