Foldy moldy. You only beat a bluff, and 440 isnt a bluff after raising utg with position on the river, he's likely showing down KQ, TT, QQ.

yahah its a fold from me. KJ A9 AJ dno but sure you are beat here

[Pates]

He might have AJ and spiked a 3 outer. Personally I call because he 3-barreled and 3-barrels can be bluffs! Next time you play a hand like this though and you're not going to 3-bet pre, I strongly suggest leading strong on that flop. Can't really say where you are as you've check called the streets which tells us little info about villain's hand. He could have a monster hand or he could see weakness in your check calling and try and steal it on the turn and river.

What did you do?

[bridgey321]

I folded and he didn't show, think I could've check raised flop, or as pates said lead out, try to define where I am at.

I think on the river my advice would be to fold (although I'd probably call... I let my interest in the hand get the better of me), but I think I'd either lead out or check-raise the flop, to see where you are.

He raised UTG, so its easy to put him on a hand like AK, AQ, AJ, AA, KK, JJ, 99, 66... all have you beat/split pot. I think its the correct fold to make!

+1

you have no idea where you are in the hand. he could be bluffing he could have you beat but you just dont know from c/c all 3 streets

[Poker_Gawd]

Yes, you had to either lead out or check raise to get a better idea of what he had. I say pocket pair only maybe A, 10

[The Incompetent-Donkey]

How much info did you have on the player, unknown I take it? I think your beat here like 80%+ of the time, which is horrible because that is about the price he is offering you. I also think that the chance he shows AQ is quite high aswell.

I do think there is some value in calling if you think you are going to play him again, as whatever he has he has played it sketchy and it might be noteworthy. Lets say he turns over a set of 9's for example, then you can write that weak leads are missed flops, or if he shows AK weak leads tend to be monsters.

What was your plan on totally blank river, lets say a 2c?

[bridgey321]

Yeah early in tourney, don't use poker tracker but hadn't seen him doing anything stoopid. Trouble is if I call this bet for info mainly George then although I'm getting 3 to 1 on a call it is half my remaining stack. I think that I would rather save my chips for later tourney play. Info isn't that important in $11 sngs anyway, especially paying 22bbs for it. If 2c hits I probably check fold aswell.
