Preflop: Hero is MP1 with Q♠: A♦:
UTG+2 folds, Hero raises to $0.06, 5 folds, BB calls $0.04

Flop: ($0.13) 9♣: T♦: A♠: (2 players)
BB checks, Hero bets $0.10, BB raises to $0.21, Hero raises to $0.49, BB calls $0.28

Fairly standard Pre-flop I think. When he check/raises me on the flop - I kind of thought he must have 2 pair or be bluffing - hadn't shown masses of aggression earlier, so assume he must have caught something. Does he ever have Ace with smaller kicker than me? Probably not often. Should have folded?

No you shouldn't have folded but raising isn't a good idea neither

So you figured out he must have caught something strong and then you decide to 3bet him OTF with TPGK... Not a very good idea :f_grin:

Dont reraise! He can have many hands. Check/call modus for turn (beware of straight coming in) Decide river.

Hmm - looking back at this - I really can't figure out why I re-raised - Big pots for Big hands? TP not really a big enough, I 'd say.

So in hindsight, a call here would have been more useful.

Thanks for your input guys.
