Forgive me for posting this. I have very little confidence these days and i don't know if i played this well or not.

Thanks all.

looks fine to me, BB has two pair at least.

Hey thrillhouse (BONESTORM!!!),

Looks good.

Nice fold on the river, no way YHIG. Can't do anything different.

Why not raise the turn? I think he's more likely to have a worse ace than a better one.

I like the 3-bet on the flop, and when he doesn't cap it on the flop I assume I'm ahead. I guess I don't give him as much credit when he bets the turn because I think I see people play AT like this way more than I see people play A9 like this. Especially since he's aggressive.

I'd fold the river as well.

Excellent user name.

I think thats a pretty good point. If he had two pair on the flop and stops he's planning to CR. If the nine helped him it's another easy CR since it's likely that i bet. What do the rest of you think about raising the turn?

[MercTec]

I think I bang a raise on the turn as well for a couple of reason. First, if he has a real hand, he probably goes for a CR here so his bet smells like a weaker ace or he could be really overplaying a flush draw. 2nd, is the SB. He's drawing so you need to make him pay a bit more (granted he still has odds for the flush, but not a gutshot)

River fold looks good to me...especially that the SB woke up.

[Fat Nicky]

Raise the turn. AJ and AT are still good possibilities here.

Good fold on the river.

Against a LAA my foot is still on the gas rolling into the Turn. I raise for value and protection.
Solid River fold.
