fold the turn hand 1call down hand 2 UI (bet/call the river if checked to)

Hand 1:There are a lot of hands villain can have here. Flush draws, small pp's, a pair of kings, or air. I would either fold to the flop raise (weak I know), or call down (weak again). There's no point in calling that flop raise if you plan on folding the turn.Hand 2:I call the turn and river.

Don't assume this based on stats. You need a real read to determine this kind of info.

Im pretty sure it's only a matter of time before someone storms in saying you have to call the flop raise in the first hand for metagame reasons.But really, you're not getting odds (even with implied odds) to call to hit your set on the turn, if you're folding unimproved. So why bother? I suppose if he checks behind for a free turn because he had a flush draw, you dodge a bullet. But how often does that happen?
