Interesting Hand For Analysis

i check then.
if he fires big at it a 2nd time i lay it down.

[sdplayerb]

it does depend on my opponent here.
but with little knowledge on him i do bet at it. if he raises he slow played his ace.
otherwise i don't want to give him a free shot to fillup if he has a smaller pair.
and it will be tough for him to bluff-raise here as it appears you slowplayed three aces.

but a check would not be a huge mistake.

WAWB, play it as such.

maybe a small bet on the flop, then checkcalling the rest of the way unless a king or anther ace falls.

The problem with the WAWB here is that calling a few 1/2 pot sized bets will cut your stack in half.

What about check-call flop, bet out on the turn. If any suit has 2+ on board, or if another broadway hits, it looks like you are trying to protect your Ace, if you get raised on the turn, you can be pretty sure you are beat, saving the river bet.

There is always the chance that you just get called on the turn, but then you are really no worse off than you were anyway.

That's a good flop for you. Bet the flop, and beware a cold call.

I think you must check the flop to represent A. If you bet, he can come over the top without an A assuming you don't have one.

Check/call the flop (fold if it's fishy). Value/Probe bet the turn 1/3-1/2 the pot unless there is some sort of flush draw, then you can bet 3/4, still representing an A that wants to charge a draw.

Tough situation, though. I busted out of a tourney where I had AA and the flop came KKT. I proceeded with caution thought the third club, the Q (straight and flush draw)until the River was another K giving me a boat.

He of course had the case K.

I check again planning on calling a bet and leading the river as a blocking bet.

Check-call Flop.
Check-raise-Fold Turn.
Blocking bet River.

[MLG]

you can really check call the flop, and then check fold the turn against most opponents.
