pocket 5s?

i never post in here, but i just had one that riled me.

playing at a tight 3/6 game on absolute.

one limper, i raise QQ, we end up 4 to the flop.
flop 777
i bet, all call.
turn 2
i bet, all call
river... ACE
i check, everyone checks

they show down A2, AQ and AQ.
3 people, combined for 1 out. and they all check it through.

why would you check through a 7772A board with AQ acting last? horrendous.,

ok im done
The Nuts
I don't know. I can sort of understand the two AQ chasing. If I don't pin any of my opponents on having a 7 or a pocket pair, then I would think that my ace high hand is best. I'd probably raise on the flop if I was AQ, hoping to take down the pot right there. If you were to call, I'd be leary of a pocket pair and probably fold the turn if I don't hit an ace (or queen...though we know that all queens were already in the hole cards).

A2 I simply can't believe. Stupidity.

well the A2 was a bit fishy, but at least he picked up the boat. its quite possible that we're all still unpaired on the turn, so i don't hate a call.

don't read this
im happy they played it like they did. the check on the river is baffling, but i'm always happy to have guys call along with hands that are either behind or dominated (often both).

i just knew my equity on the turn was so beautifully large in a big pot, then BAM the river.

actually, i came out down only 2 bets today despite no cards and getting outdrawn. this hand actually helped me feel good about my play, since i was down only a bit because of good play, and would've been up if not for mixing up reads because two people have similar usernames.

if you're still reading, i just started blabbing, but didn't feel like deleting it. a losing session helped me feel good about my play, so hopefully you guys didn't end the session too far down despite your bad beats either, and can feel like you had a nice, +EV session.

goodnight
