Comm 40: KK vs Gabe and a donk

[Gabe]

When you told me you had posted the hand, I knew mike would get it right.

I also thought that Chris might over think it.

With the bad players (the “thank you dealer” guy, a more or less maniac, and some loose guys still to act) both you and I were playing very straight-forwardly. Preflop, I was thinking about just calling the 3-bet, and maybe trying to mimic the semi-bluff from the other hand, but the bad player called. I would have a really hard time putting you on AQ, the way the game was playing, and I think you would have probably raised the flop with a set, for sure the turn, after the other player called the flop. When the river paired, the one I was worried about was the bad player, and my eyes went to him. I was pissed when Ted said “Pocket Aces” before the bad guy acted, because when the river hit, it seemed like it didn’t affect the guy one way or the other. You said you think he had a draw, though, right?
