I was sure I was ahead at the turn and I was putting one guy on a 9 and the All-in guy on an Ace. When the river dropped I was near certain that I had lost it.

[GameTheory]

IMO, you played this had tooo slow on the turn. If this is PL..why are you raising in 1$ limit-like incriments? I would've probably been a little more aggressive, however that hand didn't 'appear' to be in jeopordy of getting outdrawn persay. It would be tough for me to put Mango on a 9 on the river after a PF raise, and an All in call after an A falls on turn. Then again, there's alot of illogical nonsense that takes place at these levels.

I'd like to see the results.

i would probably complete for the 0.25 and fold to the raise. not sure if that's the best line.

check-calling the flop is fine - there are no draws at all.

coming to life on the turn is ok, as a 9 is likely checking behind now. as the other poster said, you should be making real raises, not little tiny limit ones.

on the river, there's really no reason to bet. the guy would be pretty dumb to call a bet with an A here, so just check and hope he checks behind. if he bets, you've got a decision to make.

[nickey009]

when the Ace fell on the turn I did a weak lead of a dollar on purpose because it's an obvious weak bet. I was fully expecting someone to raise it. I was hoping it was the deeper stack. A weak raise of 1 dollar didn't really get him pot committed so I couldn't re-raise him a ton because he'd just let it go. When the All-in raised 5.50 I let my clock start to tick down so it looked like I was thinking. When the 9 dropped on the river I had a sneaking feeling like someone just filled up on me.

Hopefully I get another response before I post the results.

[nickey009]

Bump....one more opinion.....please.

[UOPokerPlayer]

Preflop is ok, you have to call the mini-raise because of pot odds. Flop is ok; but turn bets are puzzling, why so little? You've got a bet and raise in front of you; at that usually means someone really likes their hand. i'd make it 7-9 to go on the turn. If i get raised again i'm pushing. There is even a case for pushing as an overbet on the turn imo. You give away too much about your hand though.
The river kind of mucks things up so i'd check; only legitimate hand you beat is an ace so i'd seriously consider folding, but i'd try to get most of my money in on the turn.

[nickey009]

Yes, I should have gotten more in on the turn probably but I just didn't feel like the other 1 dollar raiser would come along.

So anyway we open up and the Turn All-in had AJ and the raiser had KK. I was shocked that I won this hand.
