NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

I don't have much info on the villian in this hand. Is this an easy fold on the river? Did I misplay the turn?

the only hand that beats u on turn is a 4 and by flat calling u put villain on a 4 only. so u want to get your money in on the turn cause there are so many worse hands and u dont want to see one more diamond or heart. maybe raise to 80 and snap call a push (u still have a re-draw)

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

I raise the turn with all the draws out there, first to charge anyone on a draw, and second so that nothing kills my action on the river.

As played, I shrug and call the river because there are enough donked-up hands that you beat.

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

i would have lead out for a like 14 on the flop. just to get more in while its good. then re-raise all in on the turn.
i think you have him beat on the river still.
he wouldnt call 10 on the flop with a backdoor so hes either got diamonds or maybe K5/ the case ace



did he show?

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

No, he didn't show and I folded the river. I think I f'ed this hand up bad the more I think about it. It just seems like lately every time I think I'm ahead and facing a huge bet like this, they do have the made hand.

Raise turn, as played easy river fold.

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

These are spots where even a small read on his current mode/history would be huge. WIthout any info, I'd call.

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

I think river is a good fold. His range that we beat for shoving river is pretty small.

Re: NL100: Set of A\'s, Did I play bad?
 

I would probably shove the turn here. Calling/folding is close, but I think it's an obv call if the running flush didn't come in.

tough spot for me, I really don't know what I'd do here
