  1. <pre>Irexes (called Villian from now on)is a fairly tricky player, only seen him play a few
    hands, but was fairly active in them. The question I'm asking is that was this a
    correct call? Or is this results based thinking?? Also one other thing is that he
    almost insta-shoved, should this have altered my decision making? Also the fact
    I had a reasonable stack and didn't need to call this. Would this have been a good fold
    or was this just a case of I ran into a cooler? (Also had a relatively tight image but
    Villian didn't know that since he recently moved to the table).

  2. Given that your raise was from late position villain can put you on a much wider range of hands, so I would probably call this myself. Folding isnt a disaster stack-wise, but does some harm to your image and you may find yourself getting 3-bet a good bit more afterwards.

    Just my 2c
     
  3. i'm pretty sure folding AQ here would be horrible...ul
