AKs, all streets.

[SABR42]

MP3 is a 22/11 multi-tabler. I saw him limp AQ UTG one hand, which seemed pretty weird, but otherwise he hasn't been out of line.

SB is new, no reads.

My stack is only 90% because I didn't get to re-buy from the last hand yet, grrrrr.

Pre-flop, my first instincts are to 4-bet shove, but I'm primarely a 6-max player. Reminding myself that in full ring people 3-bet light a lot less, I just call. MP3's call closing the action probably means he has a pocket pair most of the time.

On the flop I decided to check, as I didn't know whether SB was trapping with a monster (AA/QQ/AQ) or just checking because he was afraid of the ace (KK/JJ). I decided to wait for the turn, where hopefully I'd have a better idea of what he has.

After he checks turn again, I'm pretty sure SB doesn't have a monster, so I bet to protect against another spade falling. I think I'm folding if MP3 pushes, although I'd hate it. MP3 folded, but SB called, which was good. I think his most likely hands are KK with a spade or JJ with a spade.

After his river check, it's basically impossible for me to not have the best hand, so I stick it in.
