boring aces hand

"Now what?"

Fold, you're beat.

Just kidding.

Maybe the jack slowed him down on the turn because he illogically feared you might have Q-T. Maybe one of the other guys had J-T and lucked into trips. Too many maybes at this point for me to raise. Plus it seems more likely you'll make more money, if your hand is good, from the players behind if you just call.

I haven't looked at the responses yet:

There is almost no way that the second jack helped the kids' hand. I would raise, expecting to be paid off by QQ/KK. I'm mildly worried about LP's hand, but he looks like he's on a flushdraw that busted. Incidentally, I doublt he could re-raise the river with AJ given that there has been so much action (fear of a FH).

I instaraised the river, both the maniac and the late player folded immediately, and the small blind frowned and called and said "I got kings". I didn't think it was very close at the time but I've been wrong before.

I'd want to reraise the turn with KK too.

Clark the post actually never said that the SB thought on the turn, that was something you and JV made up at some point. Anyways...so he had 2 Kings and made a very weird
-EV bet on the river. But was raising right here even though we might have the best hand on the river? I certainly don't see 5 bets that would have been left on the table, and I could definitely see the maniac or loose-passive calling here with some sort of hand for 1 bet. Vehn any thoughts?

I thought the chance of me not having the best hand was very low. I thought the best way to get more money in the pot was to raise the river. If I just call there's no guarantee the maniac or the late player who probably had very little will overcall.
