He obviosly must of thought I was bluffing, which is exactly what I wanted him to think when I bet the 275 instead of a solid 300.

Does anyone play this hand differently?

River bet looks like a value bet to me instead of a bluff but other than that everything looks perfect. Do you normally raise AQos or was it a tight table? Did he show 87?

Yea it just depends on the table. I folde AQ a lot and i raise with AQ a lot. He showed King 6 off suit. I just thought by the 275 bet he would think i was bluffing and call me.

meh, i don't like the size particularly of the preflop raise or the flop bet.

i vary between raising and limping my AQ, especially with other players already in the pot.

i probably bet the turn, instead of checking it, i dunno, depends on the opponent.

edit: i also fold it a lot /images/graemlins/smile.gif

...And if you thought your opponent was weak and would fold the turn?

i'd check. i'd also check against any opponent who i thought bluffed too much, who "looks for signs of weakness to jump on" too much, or who would immediatly be stupid enough to always call with any part of the board on the river (or sometimes K high or worse) due to my check on the turn.
