Default Re: 15/30 AK hand

no, it's not the same, but like i said as far as innocuous boards go QQ85 is right up there. most people who have that little money and raise will go in regardless of what happens (e.g. naked ace).

it is possible that the co had AQs (still doubt it because of the cap and the fact that two of them showed up), but i'm sure a threebet would have gotten the AK guy out of there. if it wouldn't, then his turn checkraise was just dumb and loose/aggressive. if he knows your play/history and he did this because he thought he could push you off a pair, it's an excellent and well thought-out play. the "protected pot" bit would be in your head as well as his, so he knows that you'll think "he can't possibly be checkraising two people with something other than a queen here".

all of it is only good if he still likes AK against the other guy, but i probably would.

when have i lacked content?

Why do you assume your opponent doesn't under the protected pot? Sounds like he was one step ahead of you.

I assumed he DID understand it, and therefore had something big to show down. I ruled out the semibluff and had a hard time thinking of something else he could have.

But yes, he was one step ahead of me. Did it make him money? I'm still not sure.
