AK no spade
Live, Oceans 11 20/40
SB is one of the best regulars in the game. He knows I can fold and back at me often. Folded to me in the Highjack and I Raise AK no spade. The SB calls, and the bb calls. KsTs3d Checked to me and I bet, SB raises, BB folds, I 3bet, sb calls. Js SB checks, I bet, He raises, I call. 5s Sb checks, I.... Now I think I should have folded the turn, I acted too quickly. But since i'm in this spot, do I bet? |

These games need to stay soft. I don't think I want to bet and be hit with the trifecta. You are either crushinated or he made a play and is now giving up. |

Re: AK no spade
what do people think about the turn?
i understand that villain is capable of making a movie, but this is a pretty bad board for the action that has happened...how bad is folding to the c/r considering we have no spade and don't plan on bluffing if another falls on the river? |

Re: AK no spade
Bad spot to bet. Villain has a strong non-flush hand, and he's making a defensive check-call, praying you don't have a spade. He's definitely showing down his two pair/set/straight hand.
As you know, the turn was the place to fold. |

Re: AK no spade
I would be hoping to fold out set/2-pair hands that dont have a spade.

[/ QUOTE ] if this guy is sort of okay but not very good, which it sounds like based on your description ("one of the best regulars"), he is never check/folding a better hand here. he's check/calling with a big made hand without a spade, or a weak flush that he already made on the turn. betting here would be criminal. |

IE, he's folding almost everything that you beat here(therefore no value to your bet), and he is not folding anything that can beat you(2 pair or better). |

Re: AK no spade
imo you have a better chance of getting him to fold by raising if he bet then you do by checking here. His check is very likely defensive with a decent hand, possibly giving up with a bluff, and possibly checkraising an As.
