A4s in MP1

[ugadawg]

<font color="red"> OK. Been on this table for a few hours. MP3 had seen 3 hands in the past few hours that made quads against him mostly... So, he was on tilt (I was one of the quad persons! /images/graemlins/wink.gif ) MP1 was pretty Loose mixed up passive/agressive - but played any A,K,or suited.

BTW Pokerstars is not rock-stars at this level! /images/graemlins/grin.gif </font>

PF: yeah, last to act, with that multiway pot, you have to call the raise.

Flop: you could have raised for value here, since you have 2+ callers, and then bet the turn if you hit. I think the call sets up the turn C/R nicely, I like this approach.

Turn: given that you check called the flop, the C/R fits well here.

River: I'm torn. I say bet the river, as you might get calls from 2 pair, the King of Spades, a straight, etc...but given the turn action, you might be better off checking and praying someone bets, and you might get more bets that way. but I still vote for Bet.

unless someone played 7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif T /images/graemlins/spade.gif or 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif 7 /images/graemlins/spade.gif like the most passive player on earth, I assume YHWG
