dude you make a lot of posts and then after you get feedback say things like "well actually this is really all he could have because of this and that" and all kinds of specific reads that no one but you could know.
and thats fine, reads are a big part of the game, however if you want to foster good discussion about how to think about the game and analzye a hand from start to finish that kind of stuff is useless and i think thats why some people seem annoyed by your posts/tone.

i personally dont know you but i think you post interesting hands, and people i respect have a good opinion of you so i think you're probably a pretty decent guy.

but you may come off better if you dont make posts and then after people take time to respond you come back with all this talk about how this was actually extremely obv that he had this exact hand and only this hand based on all this stuff i knew about him as it makes it kind of like well then whats the point of posting the hand?

i made my post after i saw the results (obv) so my only point was to demonstrate that there is good logic and reasoning for making a river call based on the way the entire hand played out, and to say that he can only have a boat or a straight in this spot i think is very unrealistic ESPECALLY given your description of the villian.

a big part of learning how to play poker is understanding not only how your opponents actions affect the hand ranges but also how your actions affect hand ranges, and the fact that you check behind on the flop is a HUGE FACTOR in this hand and something that players trying to improve their game should pay attention to and understand how its going to change the rest of the hand.

you C bet at least 70% of the time you say, so checking behind in this spot immediately changes the whole aspect of the hand and its something neither you nor anyone bothered to mention.

edit: and i mention more then three hands...i include worse 3's/bluffs/and AA-QQ i was just highlighting AA/QQ since no one else had included those hands in his possible range.

and ps: i'm not trying to hate on you at all in this post, like i said i think you are probably a very decent guy, and i def. like your posts...just trying to help you come across better in certain spots so you get good/positive feedback.
