Unknown villain
Feel like he's betting every turn and I'm folding every non A turn
His range to me is pp's and that's all.

Full Tilt Poker $0.50/$1 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players

MP: $75.20
Hero (CO): $101.50
BTN: $32.80
SB: $135.50
BB: $100.00
UTG: $103.30

Pre Flop: ($1.50) Hero is CO with A

1 fold, MP calls $1, Hero raises to $5, 2 folds, BB calls $4, MP calls $4

Flop: ($15.50) 9

(3 players)
BB checks, MP checks, Hero bets $8, BB raises to $23, MP folds, Hero folds

personally i either shove and call it a cooler, or call and reevaluate the turn. but just folding aa on 976 cant be a good move imo. if you are going to fold to a cr, check the flop back for pot control

I dont mind this fold, but definitely do NOT check back flop.
His calling range in this spot is huge and you would be missing a ton of value not betting.

this is true. im not advocating a check back on the flop, but if you are planning on folding to a cr, then there is an argument for it because flops like this get cr'ed a lot. i think checking back is better than bet folding, but 3bet call i think is best here but flatting might also be good. im not really a fan of folding aa on 9 high flops

I could see a valid argument against a tag and folding if you were OOP... as this board hits a lot of 2 pair, sets and draw type combos. But when you have position at least call.
