Re: Hand from Borgata WPT
2 things:
1. Our hand is very underrepresented. We checked the flop and took a stab at the turn. BB has no reason to think we have a hand nearly as strong as a set; it's probably more likely in fact that we have a draw.
2. I think it's quite possible that BB is trying to angleshoot UTG into putting money into the pot, rather than us, if he thinks we're good/smart. He might think UTG has a better chance of having a hand he can call with than we do.
I still don't really think we should call, but maybe this is the explanation you're looking for? Oh yeah and I just don't think he's good enough to check the flop with AK, though it's a good play IMO.
