Default Re: Can you NL players embarrass the MTT players? (X-post)

I think AK of spades is likely here. He was likely raising before the flop with a strong hand since the Armenian guy was already in the pot and he likely would have noticed how he was playing. He may have hoped to get a check-raise in on the flop, but with it getting checked around and somewhat of a scare card coming on the turn he was probably content to just call with the nut draw (just like sklansky says to do when you have a draw to the nuts in a nlhe tournament). If he accidentally raised, he probably wasn't too upset about it since he had such a strong hand and a draw to the nuts. If this is the case I like calling the raise to see if a spade, ace, or king comes on the river. If one does you can c/f. If not I like betting out 1/2-2/3 of the pot.
