hello,
I really do not know if this is a bad fold, a good one or a marginal spot.
In game i thought that it will cost me 60bb to find out if my kicker is good or not. And i fold.
The fact is, i don't think that at this buy-in i can see too many cold 3bet bluffs on this kind of flop.
So i figure it's a value raise. But the value range of the 3bettor here is 33 and 9x but mostly A9,K9,Q9, T9, and less of T8,T7,T6. So i think it's tilted to more hands that beat me.
And an other thing that makes me think is not so wrong to fold:
I don;t have position. This mean that if i decide to call down i let the villain to go for max value with the nuts and to stop betting with hands that i beat. So he's playing perfectly and i'm playing a guessing game.
The other solution would be to fold to later agression but this leads to an other possible mistake: to fold the better hand if he's valuebetting himself.
(i know that my bet on the flop is debatable but is not part of the problem that i'm trying to solve here)
Thank you
