10/15 nl Tropicana AC

Problem is that you should not check the turn. Pot is 300. If you c/r, either of them will likely fold AK unless it is with the spade, and then they wont pay off the river if they miss their draw. I think you get much better value from betting 200 on the turn, and then 300-500 on the end if you are sure he has AK. Many players will fold w/o a big spade if they "put" you on a flush if you c/r the turn.

As played, c/r the turn to like 300 or so. I would want to throwup if the button then comes over the top there though, but thems the breaks. If you just call the turn, c/r a blank river. Same if the board pairs K or 2. If the board pairs 9, lead, and you will definately get called.

The flop is fine, especially given your relative position to the preflop raiser, but on the turn I'd protect my hand and attempt to build a pot for my likely winner by betting 3/4s pot. Given that you checked again, a raise is in order and if the solid player comes alive you know he has a flush so play accordingly.

For those advocating raise given the current action, what do you do if the whale comes over the pot with a pot sized reraise? That's a pretty unlikely situation I suppose, since even if he does reraise he'll probably reraise light and he's very unlikely to be bet-three betting here but I think it is a point worth considering.

i lead turn for 3/4 pot and re-evaluate when met with resistance, as played i checkraise smallish on turn trying to build a pot/see where exactly i am in the hand. Check calling isn't awful and has its benefits as ur hand is so undefined and u want to keep both villians in hand, if effective button does have the nuts and u check/call board pairs on river he never checks behind and u can prob get sick value. brutal spot though, results?

i check raised turn to about 350, both players called. River was a blank and i bet out ~ 500, donkey called and button moved in, i folded, donkey called, button had the nuts. i was pretty sure of that when he flat called my check raise on the turn, not sure why he not shove, i assume he thought i had a lower flush and was drawing dead.

I thought you said button was solid.
