Seems like a standard WA/WB situation. You played it perfectly.

Why not raise the turn and check behind on the river. If he reraises you can easily fold and if he gets tricky and leads on a tough river like the ace you can fold too. As played you have to call a river bet hoping to chop.

I am way ahead or way behind and nothing I beat is likely to call a raise. Might aswell call and let him block the river with a weaker king. |

Ok, here is some other Lingo I don't understand. [/ QUOTE ] Sorry, it's the limit hold'em player in me. Way ahead/way behind basically means you're crushed by him or you're way ahead of him and don't really fear giving him free cards. This is a good example. If he has an 8, you're beaten and want to lose the minimum, if he has a weaker king, you'd like him to keep betting. Thus, just calling his bets/betting if he checks is the best way to play this hand in my opinion. |

If you think your opponent is donkish enough to bet into you on the flop and turn with a weak king then he must be donkish enough to call a raise with it. I don't see how blindly calling down is a better line. By the way you know that you aren't ahead of a weak king on the river anymore and you have to call a bet hoping to chop right? |

Note that making a nice prelop raise in position makes this hand a lot easier to play.
