So the only hand that makes sense here is AK. He'd bet that on the flop, and he'd just call on the turn with it. When no [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] hits the river, he is only scared of KK and AA, and he knows those are quite unlikely given he holds and A and a K and there is a K on the board (only 3 ways to make AA and one to make KK). So he is pretty confident that he has the best hand, and he raises me, just in case I am still semibluffing with QQ or on the off chance I will pay him off with KQ with the Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

If this is the case, then why do you think he didn't 3-bet you on the turn? He is willing to raise the river if a club doesn't come, why doesn't he re-raise the turn for your probably club flush draw?

I only play 6-12 so I'm just trying to work these ideas through in my head.

Because he wants me to bet into him on the river to continue my semibluff, if that is what it is, and he wants to be able to bet a non-club river and get a call.

He's also just a little scared of AA and KK, but not when I only call the turn.
