Live 5/5- gross board with AA
 

This is a hand from a few months ago that I never bothered to post, but I'm good at remembering details, so I think this is pretty accurate.

Live 5/5 at a certain card club in NYC that got busted since. The game is fantastic, 1000 dollar pots being won by bottom pair, people opening to 100 with 55 UTG, all around its just crazy.

The villain in this hand is actually probably one of the better players in the game, but not very good overall. I remember his friend was sitting behind watching, and starting berating him for folding ATs to a raise and reraise. So I know that he can fold ATs to a raise and reraise at least, which is more than can be said for some of the other players at the game.

Folds to me in MP I have about 800, I open to 35 (std) with red aces. Button calls, he covers, blinds fold. This may have been the first heads up pot of the night.

Flop: (80) J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] I bet 60 villain ponders for probably too long for it to be natural (but I was too stupid to realize that at the time) and tosses out 2 greens and 2 reds (thats a call for all you internet donks)

Turn (200) pairs the jack. Plan?

FWIW- In retrospect I like leading for like 125, and folding to a raise, as I really don't think the villain is capable of raising here on a bluff/semi bluff. If he calls Then maybe like a 200 blocking bet on any non club river. How is that line?

The chips are appropriately colored online too.

As for the hand, check, make a read when he bets, block river if you see it and it's not a club.
