Default Re: NL50: AJ vs Unknown C/R

Villain's turn bet is smaller than his flop raise? Why?

When an aggrodonk checkraises the flop with air, it's often a minraise. Here, he puts in a sizeable raise, signalling real strength. On the turn, he throws in a tiny bet, signalling weakness. What hand could he have that is not afraid of the first A, but scared by the second? T5?

This looks like a badly misplayed high pair to me. QQ or KK, raising your flop bet "to find out where i'm at", and then ignoring the information you give him. I think you should want to get it all in here. If you think he'd call a turn raise, raise to make the river push easy. If not, call turn, and get in the maximum you think he'll call on the river.
