Tell Me How Awful This Was

Villain had been tight agrressive preflop and passive postflop. However I'd won a number of pots against him and I got the feeling it was becoming personal. He would reraise only me any time I was in a pot with him.

I don't understand why you went all in on the river.

The turn check? Yeah its awful.

why did you check the turn? youre getting stacked here everytime, but the turn check is bad... and why did you push the river? what hand did you think would call you? pot size seems fine to me (although i also get greedy too often).

I was playing the player. Remeber I said I felt it was getting personal. He would limp into any pot I had raised. I was hoping he had Ace kicker and would see my river bet as a bluff.

The awful part was the turn check. If the guy had aces he probably was gonna re-raise you pre flop. Than leaves only one hand you cant beat.

general consensus appears to be
1. Bet the turn
2. Getting stacked here everytime

Dude, how do you not get away from this on the river? You obviously have no feel, as if this hand had happened to me I would have made a Hellmuthian laydown which would have wowed the audience and gotten me all the girls.

Bet the turn. Lose all your chips by the end, but bet the turn.
