Passive Aggressive AA

[fsuplayer]

I am thinking that a check call is best here, but i was thinking the other day of a diablo (or maybe ulyessus then) where he was playing against the 'higher' NL players and he CR'd all in when the 3rd [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] hit on a low board w KKd.

can anyone drag that up for me?

the hand itself was pretty anticlimatic, as he checked the turn as well, then a Q hit the river and chk chk MHWG.

thanks,

If we're thinking of the same hand, it bears no similarity to the one that you played. Not that CR-ing is necessarily bad here.

If you check-call the turn, do you call another decent sized bet on the river?

And, depending on how frisky the guy is, I think the river might be a small value-bet. If he was gonna bluff at it, he probably would have taken his shot on the turn. When he checks there, it means he probably has showdown value.

how come you didn't bet the river?

I bet the pot on the turn. He moves you in, you've got a huge redraw if he's got you beat, not to mention the possibility that you have him crushed with a hand like K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] or whatever.

a combo of thinking he may have checked a flush, and that he might bet hands I beat.

but i dont like it. when i posted the hand, i thought that was a mistake, but wanted to see what others thought.

yeah, this seems to me to be a situation where if you're going to call, you might as well bet, especially given the river card.
