I can't believe these guys keep falling for the CR, when I CR once I always lead out on the next card cause I figure people won't fall for it twice. Maybe that is something I will try for now on.

I've been liking my success rate employing the 3-bet the flop, followed by checkraising the turn.

I don't think I'd have had the gall to try checkraising the river here.

i think 'falling' for a second cr isn't the case. Its about putting your opponents on a hand you know they will bet if checked (and call if crsed) to because they think (sometimes rightfully) they got a good chance to win the pot. A hand they will bet if checked to and call if bet into.

Well, I would have felt like a real moron had that gotten checked through. I think it's close. But I had a decent feeling that middle guy just might have a King as well. I also didn't think he would raise if I bet out even if he did have that King.
