I think i call the river, getting 3.25 to 1

I also bet about 400 on turn

[JKratzer]

river is an easy fold. hand looks good.

What's up with your turn bet

[Triumph36]

His turn bet is excellent.

Looks like he hit the set on the river. I'm probably still calling - AK is still a possibility here, though you having the A [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] limits it. The action is very weird - I haven't seen someone lead out at a re-raised flop like this in a while.

Looking for value from the hand I beat - QQ, or maybe JJ/AK; because these are the only real hands that fit his line.

[straper]

Am I the only one who reraises the flop here hoping for jj-kk to come along?

As played, agreed that turn needs to be a stronger bet.

[jimmykingy]

looks to me like hes got KK here almost def. calls preflop to see a flop and bust JJ QQ etc. leads out flop for pot hoping to get called. hits bingo card on turn and now wants you to catch up. - with the action preflop then hes not scared of u drawing as only card he may be afraid of is an A- if u got AA.

personally with 600 in the pot after his flop bet id just stick it in, hope he aint hit the set , JJ QQ KK are more likely and they do call off often. if i call the flop im def sticking it in on the turn. i hate the small bet on dangerous drawing board saying u hope hes got AK, i dont think realistically AK plays the hand that way at all on the flop.

jsut shove the flop, keep up the image. i think u get called here by KK QQ.

[DJ Sensei]

what about check behind turn intending to call river?

Its very doubtful he's drawing to a hand here. Either he's got a set or he doesnt. AK doesnt seem that likely in my opinion.

I'll try to explain my line a little better (hard because I mainly just play by feel when multi-tabling). I didn't raise the flop because I took his lead to mean 'I have a good but not great hand and want to find out if I'm beat' - specifically JJ-QQ.

I would expect a c/r from stronger hands such as sets/KK, in order to a least pick off a cont bet. So if this is true there is more value in trapping him on a safe turn. By the river he can only have one of KK, QQ or AK and I think AK would c/c, so I folded.
