Results and thoughts...
Opponent showed A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] for the win.
My thoughts were: He's raising from the CO with a variety of hands, and my reraise could also be made from a variety of hands. The key was he only reraised the minimum, which was fishy. Either he had AA or wanted to see where he stood with QQ or JJ, etc. I should have paid more attention to that as it was probably more indicative of the former.
My plan was to let the other player bluff if he has the worse hand or bet to protect against what he thinks is the best hand. The flop was a nothing bet, means nothing. The turn says, ok, he thought he should put the hammer down vs AK if he happened to have QQ, so I called. Now I'm obliged to call the river too.
The position was bad as the table was short-handed, and the positions were ideal for villian. KK goes way up in value, and pre-flop, I had already made a pre-determination to play it out on a non-A flop.
Anyhow, thanks for your thoughts.
