Default A slowplay

Villain is 56/9/1.3 after 140 and a determined flop peeler. I had been overbetting my good hands on the flop against him for that reason, but he seemed to be making adjustments and in fact once open-folded an AKx flop against me.

So I thought I'd try a different approach in this hand. And I was congratulating myself on how well my crafty and clever shift from my usual play had worked.

And then I looked at his hand.
