Pf is fine. You can mix it up with th occaassional 3-bet.

Flop looks good. (were you planning to c/c or c/r?)

I don't like the turn. After he checks behind the flop, he either has a weak hand that won't call a raise, or a very strong one that will **** you up. I would chave check/called twice.

River is a fold. He has played his hand postflop like a monster. Expect AK/AQ/8x, or a boat here a lot. Also, if he has a weaker ace, you only get to split.

pre-flop i've started 3-betting hands like AT and KQ lately.

as played i probably would of bet the turn thinking that he's given up on a steal attempt.

if raised, i'd have to think you're beat.

I probably bet out here, but what do I know. smile.gif

I like betting the turn, I also tend to be very agressive in blind steals though. if he raises the turn just call him down... with that board I think you are going to be spliting this pot a lot so just get to showdown... Depending on his stats I would just check and call the river when the board pairs.

i would 3-bet this pf most of the time, but calling is ok too i think.

i'm assuming you're trying to c/r the flop, right? after that, i think i'm with screech--this has to be a call down if an aggressive player wants to let you catch up. as played, i think you have to fold the river unless he's capable of making bluffs like that.

Yeah, I was going for a check-raise.

The "theory" I mentioned in the OP:
People who check behind after steal-raising preflop have the nuts or nothing. In this case, it was AK. I hated my line as I was putting in the check-raise.


this is a good theory, and generally correct, but its PRECISELY why screech's justification for not raising the turn is also correct. you're not going to easily get away from this hand, and it's reasonable to expect that he's not going to give up on his bluff if he's behind, and of course he's not folding a better hand, so just call 'er right on down.
