** Dealing down cards **
Dealt to hero [ Ad Qc ]
Coach_Sac folds.
hero raises [300].
JonDavid99 folds.
DaveSmith folds.
odinjohn folds.
Toolboy36 folds.
villain calls [300].
larybk2 folds.
jomama_1069 calls [200].
** Dealing Flop ** [ 8d, 9s, Kd ]
jomama_1069 checks.
hero checks.
villain is all-In [1110]
jomama_1069 folds.
At this point all I have seen villain do is play KK over the board very weakly (bet the rag flop smallish, checked a J on the turn, checked a rag river) and hardly bet his straight on the turn and river. I have 622 chips left to call a 1572 chip pot. I think he's either bluffing or semi-bluffing JT or 2 diamonds. At best I think he has middle pair. so...
hero is all-In [622]
...and more to come
Also, what about my check on the flop? The whole tournament I had been raising preflop, with hands like AK, AQ, completely missing the flop and continuing with a decent bet only to get raised back. This time I figured the K beat me. I tend to go with Cloutier's reasoning here, that any hand that called preflop was either beating me then or is beating me now. The more I think about though, the more I like just moving in here. It's too easy (and likely) for villain to check and give free cards out to him and jomama when my AQ is winning.
