Hey all. Havnt posted a hand in a while so I thought I might get back into it.
Villan is 12.5/5.6/1.6 after 600 hands and is playing all 5 .50/1 tables.

MP2 checks, Hero checks.
Checking here is obviously best in the cases Villan has a better hand than me, since he will show that better hand down. But In the cases he has AQ-AJ, KQ-KJs, I dont think checking is horrible. I likely dominate villin and he has few outs. If I bet I might lose him. If I check I might induce a bluff on the river if villan is stupid enough to try it since my hand is pretty obvious at this point.

MP2 checks
Dang. Do I check behind with unimproved AK? I dont think so.

Final Pot: 4.75 BB
It didnt work out this time but I think, based on my read of villins hand, I did my best to get an extra bet by checking the turn and making what villin might sense as a bluff on the river. Please dont flame if too standard.
