That leaves AK/KQ/88/KJ/KT as the most likely candidates and 88 is very remote.

[/ QUOTE ]
I was thinking along these lines too, but I figured AK and possibly KQ to be raised preflop, and eliminated those (KQ also b/c it's kind of irrelevant). I think a flop cap from KJ/KT seems very unlikely, especially since we raised preflop and raised the flop so he should be thinking we have a K. Thus, 88.

On the turn, 88 looks less likely b/c there's only one combination, but when he raises the river I think it's the only hand that makes sense given the read and all his plays.

QQ is unlikeley since you get 3-bet.

QQ is unlikely because there aren't 5 queens in the deck.

One more thing to consider is that he's tight passive preflop, so limping AA-QQ/AK/KQ are all more likely than against a regular tag.

Don't stop paying off quads with full houses, it's +EV to put the pedal clear to the floor on a full house.

I'm not sure if I agree with raising the turn here. I'd be more inclined to do it if the turn card didn't pair the bottom card, as we're likely behind every single flop capping hand except another KQ (AA pulled ahead, K8, Q8)

Good point

I'd play this turn more aggressively. More likely than not you're not behind here. If you're three bet I'd probably call and check/call the river UI. With the Q on the river its time to cap. Looks like you may have missed a bet in there but its not terrible.

You don't think the flop would get capped by an opponent holding AK?

[/ QUOTE ] I don't think so. That would be strongly overplaying TPTK. And AK would have been likely to get raised preflop also.
