20/40 live at the River Rock Casino B.C

I have AsQd in EMP, I raised. A fish to my left goes all in for 50 bucks, another fish cold call, a fish(tries to play good) call from SB, BB folded, I complete it to 3 bet, they all call.

Flop: 89K, all dimonds
SB bet out, I raise, the other player folded, and SB called.

Turn: is an Ac

SB bet out. I think and called.

River is a K

SB bet out, I call.

Comment?

I have QQ on the button. TAG UTG raises, BIG fish 3 bet, folded to another TAG(who knows UTG is tight) in LMP who cap and folded to you..

Easy call?

20/40 game: straightforward...what else can you do?
15/30 PP: I like to have AA or at least KK to cold call a cap that was raised twice by two TAGs. Even PP 15.

so what did the SB have in the 20-40 game? my guess is K9... don't think you could've played it any different than you did.

20/40 hand
SB end up having T7d

What I am thinking here is that since I have a tight image and that I 3 bet preflop in a field of 4 players, SB has to think I have a big hand. I also raise him on the flop, represeting atleast AK, and yet he still bet out on the turn when the A came. The bet on the turn tells me that he is not scared of the A and is not scared what I have at all. In addition the K on the river, make the only hand(top pair with decent kicker) that I can put him on that I can beat that he would play like that has now made trips. Anyway to justify a fold here or pot is too big?

I mean if he was an absolute fish and is complete clueless then it's an easy call on the river, and it might even be a raise on the turn. But SB tries to play good. Any comments?

Hand 1 is fine.

Hand 2 fold.

There's only one hand that's "easy call" for me on this one.

i like all streets on hand 1.

hand 2 should be an easy fold with these players descriptions.

I never play online. Whether the call is 'easy' or not, a call is a better play than a fold. IMO.

Would anyone fold KK in this situation, or JJ?
