This really confused me, I was unsure about betting the flop as I was pretty confused on how he could have 3 bet without a large pair, unless he had AK. I wasn't really abusing the button, and his numbers were 36/14/5.
I'm pretty embarrassed about this one. I couldn't call the river bet because it looked like it was begging to be called, too small for a bluff. Do we think this was AcKc? A bluff with AK? or a slowplayed TT maybe, throwing out a little blocking bet on the river? I figured anything he would bet the river like that would have me beat.
Should I have potted the flop?
