Final Pot: t23687

I tried isolating from the SB to get HU with UTG, but he didn't budge. I really hate my turn bet. I probably should have just checked it down, as I was probably dead in the water with the ace.

Good analysis. Check down is good.

The side pots still dry, right?

Really easy check down, I think.
