Bet flop, and reraise his raise. When he makes it four...call him down. Sure, once you see the case K, that rules out AK....but I don't think your certainty level of AA is high enough to muck. Maybe this is the time he decided to make one of those goofy plays.

This hand would've been really interesting if the river was a 3 and I'm forced to lay down kings full for one more bet. Yes, I could've slowed down by bet 7, but anybody that slows down before that is just weak tight. Raising the turn is just bad because if I want to confirm my suspicions I'd rather do it on the cheap street. When BB turned his hand over there were exactly two hands button could have and I gave 33 2% at best so I mucked it. Button of course turns up aces. Someone please direct me to the game where someone would go 9 bets on the flop with QQ or less.

this fold should be good IMO unless you think he'll play QJcc like this. but he'll never bet the river with that, ever. and i dont think he 3bets 33 here preflop nor does he go 9 bets on the flop with it so i fold.

btw you went a little nutso on the flop.

I think you played this hand fine as long as you dont fold on the end. The pot is too big now to even consider folding for one more bet. I realize that when the big blind flashed his hand it dramatically hurt your chances of winning since the villain cannot have AK now and the chances of the villain having TT just went down by 67%. But I still think you must call here.

this post is obviously a joke.

Here's an idea. If you're going to put in 9 bets with the second nuts, call the turn, and then fold the river with the same hand, just call the 7th bet and see a showdown. Were you drawing to your one out on the turn and river? If not, why would you fold the river for one bet after putting in 9 on the flop? This doesn't make any sense. The pot is freakin huge, only one hand beats you, and you've known he had that hand since the flop. You would be better off folding the flop and tossing him the extra 1.5 BB. It would save time.

the reason he wants to fold is b/c the case K was flashed so there is now zero possibility of opponent having AK and therefore no legitimate hand he could possibly have besides AA. (although that is pretty much true after going 9 bets on the flop but hey.....)

I wouldnt go 9 bets on the flop. I also would call the river getting the odds you are, but [censored] it's close.

No, THIS post is a joke. There's no sane person going more than 2 bets on the flop with QQ. And none going more than 4 on the flop with 33. It's really low level thinking to say, "oh, I have a set of kings, I can't put in less than 7 bets." Nobody is putting in 7 bets with you with anything that you beat. You think AK is putting in 7 bets? Then your read is incorrect and the villain is not a solid player.
