($109) Too passive a line, or just right?

[async]

Interesting. I read the whole hand, and then decided that if your range (JJ+, AK, maybe AQ) was correct, the only hand that could have played the hand that way was KK. (Or maaaaybe AK, but I though AK would have bet the turn, as would AA, and JJ would have gone ahead and checked the river)

I think I'd have bet the turn, but you have an apparent read on his flop bet than indicates he has no Ace, in which case I think your play is fine. Against most opponents I'm going to re-raise pf, but if your read on his range is accurate then I like your smooth call here, because you're way behind 40% of the time preflop, and only about a coinflip another 30% or so of the time.

Of course, I don't play 109s yet, so my viewpoint is questionable anyhow. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
