Re: Bellagio 30-60 - Check top pair twice
I'd checkraise the turn. I posted a slightly similar hand yesterday. You don't know that you'll get paid off on the river and UTG sure looks like he's drawing or maybe has a weaker suited ace. ...

Not a bad line, IMO. I probably would lead on the turn, however. I hate the chance to give another free card to someone who picked up a club draw, or some other half-ass draw.

Were you planning on CR the flop?

It depended on the action. Bet-call, most likely yes. Anything else, no.

Re: 30-60, JJ in the BB
It all looks good to me except for preflop where it's an raise that you need to be making not only with your JJ, but also with hands like TT and KQs. I like the river bet.

Re: KK in BB
Hi Marrek
I don't mind smoothcalling the flop if you believe you can get in a checkraise on the turn. 3-betting is the easier and more straightforward line though and I wouldn't disagree with it....

If you aren't comfortable that AJo is better than his range of hands there, then it's ok to fold, but against many 3-betting is a better option if you are on the button or in the cutoff.

I think your opponent played it well.
Preflop cap can accomplish two things. First it is deceptive and second the 3rd player will likely fold for two more bets at least some of the time. SB...
