What the hell do you do here on the flop. I've never seen villian before.

Full Tilt Poker $0.50/$1.00 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players

BB: $107.50
UTG: $138.80
MP: $95.50
CO: $100.00
Hero (BTN): $205.80
SB: $308.30

Pre Flop: Hero is BTN with Q

UTG calls $1, 1 fold, CO raises to $4.50, Hero calls $4.50, SB calls $4, 2 folds

Flop: ($15.50) A

(3 players)
SB checks, CO bets $9, Hero calls $9, SB folds

Turn: ($33.50) J

(2 players)
CO bets $26, Hero raises to $192.30 all in, CO calls $60.50 all in

River: ($206.50) 7

ps...I am the worst player at NL100 on FT. (apparently)

A reason you didn't 3bet pre? Looks like flop is an easy raise and then prolly calling a shove from villain(don't think he has 2pr/set here too much? I guess player dependent). I hate the turn AI. We fold everything we beat and everything that calls beats us.

Is your opponent a loose raiser or tight??? If he is stealing at least around 22% of the time, then definitely 3 bet to about 14. If he calls then I would make a standard cbet of about 22 on a dry board. With the A then I would make the same bet. If he calls then I would check the turn for pot size control, regardless of the 3rd spaid. Call a river bet if he bets, and if he checks bet for value.

You have to put in a raise here at some point before there's a three flush out and you essentially turn this into a bluff that really is only effective against AK and not much else I can think of. Maybe a weak ace that flopped two pr but I can't even see that folding with this fishy move.

Pop it PF... if you think he's smart you can raise the flop but unknown I think calling is best. I flat the turn and probably muck to a river shove.

J is the last card u want to see.
I would call or fold at river depending on how CO played before

I 3 bet pre, high chance he's just isolating the UTG limper here and you have a good hand in position.

Tough with out stats. Fold here though, you don't beat much except bluffs, and he doesn't have enough behind to turn your hand into a semi bluff. Like everyone else said 3bet pf.
