Default Re: Slowplay

He could very well be trying to checkraise this flop, and if he's checkfolding the flop he's probably checkfolding the turn (this flop is unique because it contains an Ace). I would bet the flop hoping for a checkraise, which you can smoothcall and raise the turn.

This line is fine too, but you are probably giving the strength of your hand away on the turn here. I might just call and hope he bets the river, you make more this way when he has nothing or a weak pair that he'll fold to your turn raise. I'm guessing this time he was trying to checkraise an Ace on the flop so he decided to call you down once he noted your slowplay.
