Default K-high against a 2+2\'er

Here's one that might be fun.

Online game, 8-handed or so.

The game isn't great, but there are a couple really weak spots, which is the reason I'm playing. (I'm sure it's the reason the other 5 players are playing also.)

The BB here is a fellow 2+2'er who I've played a fair amount against. I don't know if he knows me, but I'm sure he has a bunch of stats on me at least. I also don't know if he reads the micro-limit forum, but it would be cool if he did so we could talk about this hand.

We had not been involved in a pot yet this session. I had been at the table for maybe 20 hands and hadn't done anything retarded yet. (Mostly folding, stole the blinds without a fight once.)

So here we go:

Couple folds, I raise Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] from about the cutoff seat, everyone folds to the BB who calls.

Headsup to the flop, 4.5 little bets

Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

He checks, I bet, he calls.

Turn (3 big bets): 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

He checks, I bet, he calls.

Riviera (5 big bets): J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

He bets, I raise....

Pure poker awesomeness?
Pure suckedness?
Meh?

Not bad; I did this vs. Deception5 once and the bastard almost timed out and called with his Ax. The problem is people don't play like they post.

He can't checkraise me on the turn unless he has a real whopper, in which case I don't mind calling two bets because he's likely to spray on the river if I make a flush.

This is horrible logic, and unless hes a retard, you are like never getting more than 2bets from him on the river...

Who was the 2p2'r, and what stakes is this?

If its checked through the turn, he checks the river, you bet, he calls. Is it safe to say he was trying to induce a river bluff with Ax?

If this is the case, river raise works well IMO.
