Default Ridiculously fishy check leads to major meltdown

PP 15/30 8 handed.

HJ 40/10 type, open raises. I 3 bet J's in the CO. SB folds. BB calls. HJ caps. I call, BB calls.

Flop comes AA6 rainbow.

It's checked around to me???

Something seems to stink. I feel like I'm being set up here. I check waiting to see what develops on the turn from the BB and HJ.

Turn is a rag.

Checked to me again. Wtf?

Who bets flop, and anyone think there is a good reason not to fire here on the turn? Anyone check again?


Thanks,

Nigel

I would choose to bet the flop and find out you're way behind as oposed to to finding out on the turn

Yeah, I agree you should bet the flop. Capper is most likely in the same boat as you....has a pocket pair and thinks YOUR the one who raised w/ AK.....

I'm not sure you can found out where you are in this hand by betting the flop unless both players fold. And that seems highly unlikely.

Was hoping more people would comment on this hand. Maybe I need to post my embarassing river play. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

you can bet the flop so you can check the turn.

I was in the almost the exact same spot this weekend...weird.

I am in BB with JJ, 2 limpers then cutoff raises. I 3 bet, limpers call and cutoff caps it. 4 of us see a flop of

QQ3. I check, so does everyone else.

Turn is a rag. Checked all around again.

River is a 10. I reach for chips then decide to check. It gets checked around and I win.

I didn't know if I played it badly or not.
