Villain just sat down with 100BB. I have him covered

Bet 20, fold to any more action.

Check behind. The only hand that is ever going to consider calling now that you beat is AK. I think you'll be check-raised here more often than usual, since Villain has called 2 sizable bets on a mono-flop.

And of course, he's folding all missed draws.

ANY ace looks me up on river. Maybe a pair+busted flush draw too. That being said, he has checked 3 streets... Does he have me beat?

[DoomSlice]

Weak aces usually won't look you up on mono-board, in my opinion. This either looks like a made flush waiting to check-raise, a draw with the Kh, or a passively played set that was looking to fill up.

Edit: BTW I don't like the call preflop. Raise his ass.
