i read his weak flop bet as a pocket pair. when he called my pot raise, he might have a Ace.

check on the turn, and check/fold to a medium bet if the river card is smaller than a 9? if larger than a 9, check/call since it might be a split pot?

what's the correct play on the turn + river, and why? </font>

He either has a flush draw or the 3rd 6. Either way I am going all-in here to protect against a flush draw and if he has the 3rd 6, so be it. Fire up another one and it is back to business as usual. late.

Check turn, your not getting any real value out of a bet. Clearly, you are either beat by a better ace or he is folding turn. See how he reacts on river. If its not a club, see if you can pick off a bluff of his, and of course if a J Q K rivers, id call his bet unless you feel your beat. Pushing turn is baaaddd you have no idea if he has a 6, AJ, A 10, etc .. protect what? the small pot?

Why did you raise the flop?

i read his weak bet as a pocket pair. i raised for information.

if he had a pocket pair (besides AA or 66), he would probably fold. if he reraised, i put him on the 6, and insta-fold. i still have over 10BB.

what do you mean pick off a river bluff if the river card isnt a club?

[PattyMcFatty]

I mean if you check turn, and he missed his hand, or never had one for that matter, he might stab at river. Its a likely spot. Im not suggesting you ALWAYS call down here, but if you think you spot a bluff from his busted draw, you could call..

He raised flop for information and free card if necessary- which is exactly what he got so I like that play.

i was the one that RAISED on the flop. he just bet out with a weak bet.

[Pepsquad]

Villain bet ~50 and called your healthy raise. Then checked the turn. I put him on one of two hands...a vulnerable ace or a flush draw.
One the turn I'm firing another ~150 and if I'm called I'm praying a king hits on the river to help me split the pot.

The only reason I would have raised this flop is so that I could check it down or call a small bet on the river.
