Raise again or just call?
In MP, I find AA. Sweet. One limper to me and I raise, LP calls 2 cold, BB calls and the limper calls. Flop comes KT4r and I’m mentally counting chips. EP bets out, I raise, LP calls 2 again, BB folds and EP calls. Turn is a 9, completes the rainbow, and I’m figuring EP will check to me. Nope, he bets out and I pause for a moment before raising. LP folds this time and EP calls. River is a 2 and EP bets out again. I think for a moment, start to suspect I may be beat, wonder and hope he’ll have AK, start to fear KT, and finally just call.
Obviously I missed a bet here, as he turns over KQ for top pair good kicker. I just couldn’t see raising again after he continues to bet into me – even though he’s not raising. Perhaps this is an obvious raise, but at the time I was cautious. Does anyone else just call here? Or does the entire world including my sister raise him a third time?
