I can't see any other possible line.

I play it the same way, maybe go a little over 200 on the flop bet but thats minor. Sucks if he had a deuce or 67 in his hand but we can always suck out on the riv if that is the case [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Looks fine, you have to go broke here. Plus you have outs on river

Looks good, see Ax here and two pair. You are winning most of the time and have ten outs otherwise.

i like pf and the flop. the turn needs to be checked behind for pot-control reasons. RRAI any river bet.

I like a check on the turn too. Seeing that last card on the cheap wouldn't be bad at all, and if by some chance BB and UTG had gotten it all in on the river before you could act (and thus be pretty sure one had the straight), and the board didn't pair you could probably throw it away.

That just doesn't make any sense to me. Why pot-control if we're reraising all-in any river bet??

Value from loose big Aces or sane 2 pair (who don't get their stack in) by betting the river if it's checked to you again?

Basically, the straight is unlikely. Also most of the time a straight will bet into you on the turn since the board looks mighty scary. However, an Ax will prolly bet the river for value and then you can RRAI unless the board gets really bad.
