Re: $10/$20 LO8 hand from EP
Dave - What throws you off here is MP1 capping on the flop. At that point you have to become concerned about the possibility of being up against a flopped full house.
Now it's simply too rash for you to bet the turn. You want to bet this turn, but it's simply too rash. And it's certainly too rash to check/raise.
And then, I suspect you miss a bet on the river. I'm betting you had a winner here and maybe even suspected you did, but hoped Villain would bet it for you. That second pair on the board after aces on the flop, as I'm sure you already know, greatly reduces the chance you're up against a full house.
Assuming I'm correctly assessing the situation, I don't see anything you could have done about it. You're out of position against a clever opponent.
It's no big deal, only a half bet and the loss of initiative due to Villain capping instead of calling your three bet on the second round.
(Or maybe I'm all wet here).
