Um, 3bet the flop? You have TPTK. Is this guy like uber-TAG or something? It appears to me that he was testing the waters on the flop, and you told him that you have jack [censored]. Seriously, what was your read on this guy at the time?

He was calling with intent to raise the turn to maximize value...

Don't you think YHIG at least 1 in 10? I wouldn't feel comfortable letting this hand go for one bet at the river.

I know that I almost never let this go on the river. That being said, I have been consumed by the "YOU'RE GETTING 432565433:1 YOU HAVE TO CALL STOOPID" mentality that is so often pushed here on 2+2. I wish I knew if this call is actually + or - EV.

For what it's worth, I pay this river off 99% of the time without a read.

I would probably 3-bet the flop, but I think waiting to raise on the turn is fine.

I would call on the river without feeling bad about it.
12-1 odds, sure I am most likely beaten, but I don't feel 92% sure about it /images/graemlins/smile.gif

I guess you could fold here if you have a VERY sure read on the player... but I would never feel so sure about a read.

[Gravy (Gravy Smoothie)]

Yeah I dunno, it was close. I don't think I've ever been double checkraised on two nonconsecutive streets by someone with just one pair though.

[Luv2DriveTT]

Call the river check raise! Why did you fold? What if he was bluffing or had a weaker Ace? Yes, its possible Villain had a set, or 2 pair... but you MUST call in this situation.... it will be (barely) profitable in the long run.
