Final Pot: 18.25 BB

I decided to slow down on the turn, cos I'll be totally owned by a set of TT, or AA. Issit maximising EV by calling down on turn? Of course, the sucky card of Ace comes on the river, and have to call down.

I would play it the same

Re: Line taken correct, with pocket KK?
 

Preflop and the flop are both standard.

I'm inclined to lead the turn since UTG is highly aggressive and since there's a preflop 3-bettor along for the ride. I don't have a big objection to checking though. If I lead the turn, I'm just calling down any additional raises.

I know its a big pot, but I don't think you need to overcall this river. Is UTG betting that river with QQ? Is CO calling with JJ?

UTG's tells me that he's very aggro. I'm leaning to calling on the river, as pot's too big, and I'm pretty sure CO is already contributing dead money in the pot. AK is definitely part of UTG's range, but we've to consider that chances of chopping with KK, and winning UTG if he holds QQ, JJ.

Re: Line taken correct, with pocket KK?
 

AK is not in UTG's range by the time we get to the river. I'm much more worried about CO having that hand.

I play it the same way. Nice hand. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
