Default Crabs, Why I don\'t need to advertise.

Online 5-10 game.

Pretty standard cast of characters, noone involved in this hand seems like they are out of line, in fact, I am thinking about leaving the game shortly.

UTG+1 limps, UTG+2 limps, CO raises, Button folds, SB folds, I call in the BB with 3 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]3 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], and both limpers call.

Flop 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]4 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].

I check, I'm thinking about checkraising the flop at this point in time to see what happens, but it gets checked through. Hmmmmm. I suspect strongly, that CO has AK, and he doesn't bet AK into a four player field if he misses.

Turn, Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I bet, the two limpers fold. CO calls. We could almost stop this here, what hands do you put CO on now?

River 2 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] This can't be a bad card for me. What's your play now?

- Probably not a smallish PP because they wouldn't have raised preflop
- Probably not a mid or big PP because they would've bet the flop.
- Probably not a suited connector below K-Q because they wouldn't have raised preflop.

- A-K seems likely. A-J, A-10 possible.
- A-Q or K-Q maybe if he's looking to keep you in to the river.

So, a check to elicit a bluff?

Check call trying to induce. I don't see how betting would have any value here.

He doesn't have a Q. He probably turned a draw. He'd have bet a pair on that flop.

Check/call the river. A lesser hand might bet this thinking you were betting a turned draw.

He's checking behind with like all his A high hands here. What hand could he possibly bet with that we beat? c/c is asking to get valuebet by his queen and never getting any value from his ace high hands. b/f is my line.

c/c against most of those described as "standard cast of characters" in an online 5/10 game. they bet more worse hands than they'll call with when checked to on that board. nh. i like the plan for the flop c/r; sucks it checked through.
