Why the hell are you check-raising? Bet something like $6-$7 on the flop and play accordingly. If he raises I would get outta there since there's not a hand you are beating if he raises.

CO commits his stack here, so if we are willing to call the flop bet, we might as well just shove.

Don't include CO's action after you move in.

TT, JJ that you beat pre-flop just made sets - and AA KK are still ahead.

This is often a combo draw though with AK or AQh...with 12+ outs to improve.

This hand range combined I'd actually argue for a flop fold against a decent/good player. But readless this range is way too narrow so in reality I get it in on the flop...

Wow, I didn't noticed that Hero c/red AI. This is definitely bad.

I bet the flop all day long on this board. Check-raising is too unreliable, CO checks behind too often and gets in cheep. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Well you showed alot of strength PF, then your opponent wasn't afraid of your check. I dunno about this, leading with a pot sized bet is wayyy better in this situation, especially when you are this deep.

Thanks for your replies. He had ATo and spiked an ace on the turn.
