Two AKo hands. 1 Good call, 1 questionable...same end result.
Im am "Hero". The other players Ive reduced to 1 letter for simplicity. The opposing player is labeled "villian". Heres the first hand. S+G, 9 players still in. Anyone else play this differently?

[img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] I actually thought he would have folded to the all in raise here. I would have. This next hand, I lost sleep over. But I really want to know, how many people save some chips here and how many end up like I did.

Two pair wasnt likely here obviously, and no draws. Should I have read AA here? |

I am no expert, but I would have expected a re-raise on the flop. He called to slow play, but then got some action and only called again.
Maybe I'll try his play sometime. It seemed to work out ok [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img] |

Yes it did. The only reason it would have worked so well was the A to hitting the flop giving me top pair/top kicker. Without that ace hitting, with any other hand, I would have given him no action. And of course, with KK in MY hand and the right flop..his play preflop play could have backfired.
