Party 15-30. I'm new to the table, but usuall suspects present.
I get AK /images/graemlins/spade.gif on the button.
UTG loosey limps, MP raises, LMP calls 2, I 3 bet. blinds fold, rest call. Four to see the flop.
Flop: T /images/graemlins/heart.gif 5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif K /images/graemlins/heart.gif
Checked to me, I bet, happy with TP/TK.
UTG folds, other two call.
Turn: 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif Well, the flush got there.
Checked to me, I bet. both just call. Maybe flush isn't out there?
River: Js AQ just got there.
I'm planning on checking this one through. First player checks, now second player bets. I think and think and fold.
Why did I fold? Pot is big after all! Easy to call for one bet, right?
Well what hands can I beat other than a bluff that they'd bet in to me with. And what hands am I behind?
And why would he bet in to me instead of letting me bet? He's betting because he's afraid I won't bet. I 3bet preflop and bet the flop and the turn. Why would he suddenly be aftaid I won't bet the river? Only if he has the winning hand and he's afraid I'll check.
He could have the flush. He could have the straight. He could have 2 pair. No way he's betting in to me with KQ or something.
I think I saved $30. My buddy blew a gasket when he saw that fold, called it HORRIBLE.
Thought, comments, abuse, praise?

P.S. when I folded, MP folded as well and he took the pot uncontested.
