I would have raised the turn, too. However, you wanted overcalls and called. Why then, did you raise the river with the big full, thereby losing two potential overcalls?

In answer to which Ax I'd 3-bet, I'd only do it if I felt that the value was there - my test is whether I'd be able to correctly value bet the river unimproved much. So probably AQ/AJ...

Re: Donk of death the river?
This seems like a good spot to go for a c/r, unless the BB is really super passive and will not bet his likely 2-pair.

So I find myself sitting in a 1/2 game again, feeling somewhat over-matched aside from two obvious weak spots. The villain here is a TAG, possibly a pro, and probably views me as weak. Earlier he...

Re: Fun w/ ATs
What hands are you giving the BB that you can't bet that river? And given that range, why are you calling the turn?
