id have a hard time calling on the turn....sb is representing a flush draw, a seven, aces, or a king....when the flush hits on the turn i think you are beat more than half the time and when you are he is going to make you pay....get out while its cheap

I think the flush redraw on turn swung the turn to a call for me, when the J hits the river makes it harder to fold so I just call without knowing quite what else to do.

Flop is okay, turn call is meh especially in a limped pot. I definitely fold river, the J doesn't help your hand at all, it just makes it prettier. Is villain really playing AK/KQ like this? I expect a flush or a boat here every time, even 7x has you beat. Also stack sizes?

[gimmetheloot]

fold the turn mang.

Why wouldn't a reraise make sense on the flop? You probably have the best hand then since villain would probably raise proflop with AK, KQ.
Reraise flop to give him bad FD odds. If he calls be aware of trips.

Turn call, whatever. Definetly fold river, you'll see a 7 here like allways.

Ehh, no. Raising the flop sucks.

Raising flop sucks. Turn call is thin. River call is spew.

Raising the flop bloats the pot. This is a hand you want to play in a small pot, not a big one. Now if you raise on the flop you gotta fold to a near psb on the turn. I think you also need to check on the turn and call a small river bet with this line.

This board is FUGLY and the villain hasn't eased off the accelerator one bit. 2 pair only has value as a bluff catcher here. Pretend you have Q5o on the river.
