Default Re: Hand from Mandalay Bay (not mine)

Wrote this to the player who had 77:

This is really tough. Cory likes to play position, so I doubt he raises pre here without JJ-AA, AK.

I obv call pre, and also like your bet on the flop. Now we have to put him on a hand. What can he have? Well, it is doubtful he has an overpair, as he would have had to lead at the pot on the flop. That leaves only 1 possibility(other than air), and that is AKdd. This is really weird. In my opinion, Cory would either lead with AKdd on that flop, or ckraise. So, now we can’t put him on a hand. If you check behind a player like Cory on that turn, he is likely gonna bluff the river. This is why I think you have to call getting ~ 2.5-1 on the river.

I am really not sure how I’d play the turn. Betting and getting ckraised is the worst feeling in the world. I would probably check behind then call the river.
