Live Home Game - $0.50/$0.50 NL - Holdem - 8 players

SB: 120 BB
BB: 90 BB
UTG: 160 BB
UTG+1: 120 BB
UTG+2: 80
MP: 200 BB
Villain (CO): 150 BB
Hero (BTN): 163 BB

SB posts SB 1 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB, UTG Straddle and posts 2 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 4 BB) Hero has A Spade K Hearts:

UTG+1 fold, UTG+2 fold, MP calls 2BB, Villain CO calls 2BB, Hero raises to 11BB, SB fold, BB fold, UTG fold, MP2 calls 9 BB, Villain CO calls 9BB

Flop: (37BB) 10d 6d Ac (3 Players)

MP checks, Villain CO checks, Hero bets 25BB, MP folds, CO raise 75BB, Hero ??

As this is live game, I dont have HUD stats. but i have played with CO for a few sessions and understand that he is not a loose / crazy player types. He occasionally shows a few bluffs but very unlikely that he will bluff off a 100BB+ stack. Also, a few hands ago he folded TT on a K high board when I cbet on the flop with A high.

What type of game is 0.50/0.50? Shouldn't it be 0.50/1.00?
The CO game smells like Ax+FD...

In a live home game, it’s possible most likely, but it’s indeed a strange SB/BB dynamic for online players like we are.

I would most likely fold the flop on a wet board like this. You only beat a flush draw here and he could have sets and 2 pairs in his range that he would check/raise for value as well. The only reason to stack off here if you have reads he can do this with a random Ace here.

Cheers,

Thanks all for the feedback! It is very common in Singapore to have BB and SB as the same amount.

With respect to the hand, I ended up folding on the flop. May seem on the tighter side but I hadnt really seen him stack off with top pair in the sessions I played with him. My thought process is the same as SDK. Was thinking even if he was on Ax + FD, he still had 9 (flush outs) + 3 (2pair outs), roughly 36% equity. Against sets + 2 pairs, I am drawing thin. Just think I may have better spots to get my stack in.

I like the fold too.
