looks good. only thing i can put him on is AK,KQ, or a badly overplayed AA

I would've led the flop and hope he raises so I can 3-bet. He is playing it like he has AK as well.

I checkraised because of two reasons:

1. The pot was very big and I would not mind if people left with their freak draws.

2. If the people with the freak draws want to stay I at least want to make sure they are not doing so correctly, hence checkraise.

I have a feeling that a bet-3-bet would be less succesful acheiving those things.

Am I right?

it could go either way. you know the table better that us. id prob have bet out unless i was positive i could check raise. he could have capped preflop with QQ or JJ and checked through when the K hit on the flop and scared him. thats my take anyway.

MP3 turns over K9 and takes the 32BB pot with his boat.
