It looks good to me.

I'd probably make a crying call on the river, hoping CO decided to bet his QQ when checked to on the turn and then decided against taking a free showdown, but I can see why you folded.

I think you have UTG beat though (or maybe you're tied with him).

Thanks for the quick response - was curious what people would think of that river fold. Didn't think folding the turn was an option - but would anyone bet here?

I don't think you can bet into 4 stragglers here (when their Ax hits).

This hand was played very well IMO. NH

An A is in UTGs range of hands for sure. So when he calls the turn and river it looks like a good ace.

I think the turn peel is fine. I despise these hands because even a moron sees you have KK-JJ when you check and call this turn.

So, what is the point of peeling on the turn? That pot is 17BB, you need 22BB, and K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] is a dirty out. Plus, somebody could reraise behind you.
I think if you call the turn you need to call the river as well.

Pot is 19BB back to hero, but I see your point on the dirty out. Hmmmm.

Yeah good point about the dirty out... I am closing the action though and the pot is 19BB to me. Would be a whole lot better if I had K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
