I'm at a 1/2 2 am on a tuesday. A very dead night for my local casino, we just combined the last two tables to one. The game is playing very passive pre-flop, with players just looking to see a flop.
Villain (500): Joined the table when his broke about 45 mins ago. Has not played many hands. We have been talking a bit, and I get the sense he's better than me. Certainly has a bunch more hours under his belt.
We had a hand together at this point: V (SB) H (Button). I limp in with (44), he raises and I am the sole caller. I flop a set, V c-bets and I call. Turn V checks, I bet, he says "You have a set" and folds.
Hero (900): I've made my money by being the aggressor pre flop, value betting when I believe I'm ahead, getting folds with C-bets, and quitting on hands when I've got nothing and a c-bet failed. I have no massive hands on record, but did suck out in a weird 4-bet pot. My KK hit the turn. It's quite possible V and his bud sitting next to him see me as a target after the KK hand, and with my stack as is.
OTTH:
Villain (SB)
Hero (Button): QJs
UTG +1 raises to 10 everyone calls. I'm not really in the mood to three bet here, figuring its going multiway at this time of night so I just call hoping to smash the flop.
Villain calls.
Flop (80): Q
J
3
V leads with 60. Hero calls.
Turn (200): 8
V leads with 100. Hero folds.
In my mind, he's got the 33. I know thats me being fearful of one single possible hand, but I don't see anything he can have that will lead into 7 other players.
So is calling the flop, just to fold the turn a leak? Would anyone fold immediately post flop?
As I write this now, I realize the turn bet sizing wasn't massive, but at the time, it felt large given the hand and his position.
