This whole table had me scratching my head, as I swear there were at least 3 full out bluffs within my first 12 hands there. EP1 didn't seem like that "solid" of a player and tended to overplay hands alot. I also had no respect of his raises, as he was one of the players I had witnessed bluffing earlier.

So, considering all of this, how maw my play here? I check/called the river because I figured at best I would be looking at a split pot...... Comments? Does anyone like the check-raise on the turn?

PS: I used slavic's decoder for this, and it had me as UTG, so I changed it, as I was actually BB.

Interesting hand.

What would EP be in with. A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]2 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]?

Or he has an Ace and your splitting this pot.

I think you played it as well as possible. I absolutely hate these kind of flops as they have been thrashing me lately.

I would have bet the flop. Why give up control of the board if you think you still have the best hand?

Why would you think that?

[Gomez22]

Because of his 3-bet on the turn

The only hand you are splitting with is another AK.

Not sure about these smaller limits as every likes to call, but it is often correct to bet out with your hand on a flop like this that is almost certain to have missed everyone.

I checked because IF I was behind on the flop, I didn't have to pay 2 bets to see the turn, plus, I thought it might keep the other player in to help pad the pot. Plus, I check-raised the turn to "catch-up".

Am I crazy/stoopid for thinking this?
