Another mid-pair....

Not a lot of reads, stats showed (not a ton of hands mind you) that he was a tight player. OPR showed him as a profitable player. I had not been out of line during our play together and was pretty passive for pot control….so I can't think he was checking flop thinking I would fire out weak?

I'm folding. There's not much you have beat there. Don't see him shoving with anything you have beat. The small reraise preflop is showing alot of strength.

Fold your behind, with his reraise preflop I would have just checked the flop against a person you said was tight to see what he does on the turn and go from there.

flat pre, then check the flop. you have to ask yourself why would he reraise pre and check with 1st act position to me its to set up the check raise 99% of players are c betting there reaise pre so dont get caught in that spot again. he will definitely lead the turn so now read dependant

I like how you played it, but you've got to fold to his check-raise. I don't like checking behind on the flop as there is way too much that can come to beat you. His reraise pre- can still be a lot of things considering your steal position, but his flop line says you're almost always beat. If he flat-called the flop then you'd have to slow down on most turns, and most players with big aces that missed will either check/fold or c-bet a flop like this, and he did neither.

Looks like a higher pair to me and it looks like you bet out for information and you got it loud and clear. Unless he's spazzing out with AK that missed, which seems really unlikely if he's solid and you haven't been playing crazy.

The baby raise and then check jam is a really strong line from him. Easy fold.
