(Sorry, there's no hand history at Noble Poker and that converter confuses the hell out of me.).25/.50 NL Hold'em Cash GameExcept for someone not in the hand, all guys that are new to meI have $50.00Caller A has $45.50Caller B has $65Caller C has $35I'm dealt AKo UTG+1 and raise it to $1.50. MP call, SB call, BB call.Flop comes Kh-5h-2sCheck-check to me. I bet $5. All 3 call.Turn 3cCheck-check. I bet $5. 3 Callers.River 10cCheck-check. I think about checking, and wish I had now, but bet $10. MP folds, SB thinks for a second and moves all in for his remaining $50 (putting me all in). BB had pre-clicked fold. I take up almost all of my time and fold.Where did I go wrong and what is he likely to have? The only real mistake I see is betting on the river. I sincerely doubt he'd call $5 on the flop with a gutshot draw (though anything's possible). Any and all flameless help is welcome.

your bet screamed weakness on the turn. why bet the same on the flop as on the turn? on the flop, the pot was $6, so a bet of $5 works. but now, on the turn, the pot is $26, and you bet $5??? a bet of $15 or $20 is much better.that's where you went wrong, badly.although you only had TPTK, not usually a strong enough holding for NL, i would have called here. i strongly sense that the all-in is a missed heart draw or is a weak top-pair bluff sensing that you were weak because of that terrible turn bet. the board is also fairly safe, so the only hands i would be worried about would be KT or a set.aseem

I agree with betting the potAll-in is too strong, because there might be something willing to take a shot at breaking youUnfortunately, with that 10, I think you might have to check the river, but you have position, so that's no problemYou might still lose the hand, you might push the winner out Dunno
