The guy checked behind last to act when the ace hit. I'm sure the original raiser is afraid he has an ace.

sarcasm will get you nowhere. why are you being a condescending prick? I will no longer bother you with my opinion.

Sorry, it's how I talk. I'm a sarcastic person. I didn't mean to be condescending but there's absolutely no chance he folds KK-JJ. The only way a better T is folding is if someone calls before him.

Please tell me at least one better hand that would fold to a river bet by me.

JJ-KK. KT, QT, JT

With the exception of JT and possibly QT...I have to disagree with this.

I would checkraise this flop. Sure, there are lots of turn cards we aren't going to like, but the pot is biiiig. In an unraised pot I like your line, but there's too much $ in this pot for me to play it like this - even with poor implied odds we are giving up too much IMO.

Unless you have a specific read, MPs flop bet does nearly nothing to distinguish his hand from his PFR standards, which are going to be pretty loose for an unkown. 2 callers before him...they could have overcards, any pair, whatever. I'm playing this flop more aggressively if I call preflop...but I don't call preflop here.

I'm really, really not convinced that a better hand will fold, but I think any pair calls, and possibly even K high.

I think many worse-pair hands will call, but they will be almost exclusively from the CO. If it were HU with MP i'd check to induce a bluff.

Yeah I felt the only possible hands that might EVER fold is pretty much just JT, and I thought that was pushing it.

I think you can overcall the river here -- you have second pair in a sizable pot that no one has shown much interest in. I think rushing to put MP on KK-JJ is a mistake, it's almost certain no one has an ace, and CO is calling with any pair. Otherwise I like the line.
