'Great Fold' I thought, now not sure

[Samba_SamPa]

Those of you on my table when it happened last night will remember this hand. At the time I was delighted that I managed to get away from it, and thought it was a hand I wouldn't have done so in the not too distant past, so surely this is a sign I am 'improving'! Well, after speaking to a poker playing friend, whose opinion I value highly, he's cast doubts in my mind. From saying my bet from utg was too high, to saying that depending on the range Hornet could make the move with it is probably -EV to be folding. Anyway, throwing it open to you. All opinions, and more importantly explanations of your opinions, will be warmly received. ***** Hand 1269237456 ***** 75.00/150.00 Texas Hold'em (No Limit ) - 08 October 2008 21:27:38 PLounge league (Real /Tournament ) Seat 1: PLmorlspin (3690.00) Seat 2: PLTelepee (2328.00) Seat 3: PL borokp (3653.00) Seat 4: plSamba (3022.00) Seat 5: PL jolly67 (2513.00) Seat 6: SPSlickMic (2330.00) Seat 7: PLHornet (4710.00) Seat 8: PLkip6 (1695.00) Seat 9: PLNade (1954.00) Seat 10: PLavongirl (1095.00) PLTelepee post SB 75.00 PL borokp post BB 150.00 ** Deal ** PLmorlspin [N/A, N/A] PLTelepee [N/A, N/A] PL borokp [N/A, N/A] plSamba [Qs, Qh] PL jolly67 [N/A, N/A] SPSlickMic [N/A, N/A] PLHornet [N/A, N/A] PLkip6 [N/A, N/A] PLNade [N/A, N/A] PLavongirl [N/A, N/A] *** Bet Round 1 *** plSamba Raise to 550.00 PL jolly67 Fold SPSlickMic Fold PLHornet Raise to 1850.00 PLkip6 Fold PLNade Fold PLavongirl Fold PLmorlspin Fold PLTelepee Fold PL borokp Fold plSamba Fold *** Showdown *** : Rake: 0.00 Total Pot: 1325.00 PLmorlspin Fold Win: 0.00 PLTelepee Fold Win: 0.00 PL borokp Fold Win: 0.00 plSamba Fold Win: 0.00 PL jolly67 Fold Win: 0.00 SPSlickMic Fold Win: 0.00 PLHornet By default Win: 1325.00 PLkip6 Fold Win: 0.00 PLNade Fold Win: 0.00 PLavongirl Fold Win: 0.00

Re: 'Great Fold' I thought, now not sure I'd put hornet on a hand like AK AQ or a pocket pair lower than QQ. Don't think he has KK or AA. My reason for this being I think he would raise slightly less with AA or KK so I think I'd shove allin and if he has AA or KK tough. Situations like this are often player dependent, now let's say Guppie had made that reraise I'd put him on at least AK and would fold. Just to add I don't mind the laydown and you probably made the correct decision.
