A hand from the Stars 35K... ~159 left, pays 81, I'm in the top 25 when this hand comes up. I had a reason for each action but I don't think I like the line. I think I am overdoing the WA/WB mentality. In this hand, more from a probably WA and trying to induce bluffs/value perspective. I wasn't abnormally scared of AK/KK.
Bet flop? Raise turn? Am I the only one who checks flop somewhat frequently?
