Re: Hi/Lo tough river spot with AAA
I'm simply too stubborn to fold 3 aces there. In fact I don't like the check - it announces that you're not sure if your aces up are good - it lets a hand like 3 nines or a backdoor low feel confident in raising.
If you bet 7th can a flush or a ragged backdoored low feel good about raising you? I think betting gets you a 1bet showdown with both a flush and a low, while checking often forces a 2 bet showdown - and occasionally they'll show up with 2 lows and you'll muck half the large pot.
