[Garland]

I was looking for my old friend from the "AA fold on a KQ6 board" post", and I found him. I decided to sit at a couple of his tables to try to learn more about his play and perhaps ask him his hand if he was so inclined to communicate. Unfortunately, he wasn't very talkative (he didn't say "hi" back) [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img].

Anyhow, instead I found some fish to play with, so I decided to drop down in limits and get some sets paid off.

To be critical of myself, I had a read that he slow-played and passively played AA or KK by the time he called the big turn bet, so I didn't maximize my value on the river. I should have bet the entire pot or even pushed.
