Ya I was BB. Miss typed it in OP.

He raises the turn with A high for free showdown I think, cause I usually bet the turn with w/e I 3 bet with. If he has quads or a bigger pair he always 4 bets the turn. Who knows tho maybe he blfufed me with T9 haha.

Why not give your opponent a chance to bluff the river with this ace? Given your action preflop and later, it is obvious that you either have a pocket pair or a big ace. Many pocket pairs that would have called on the river may now fold after the ace hits. Trying to induce a bluff, or thin value bet from a worse hand, may give you a better chance of collecting a bet on the river.

And the check also saves money those times when your opponent has an ace.

i really dont like this hand for some reason, because i dont see why hed raise the turn with AK, and thats the only hand which beats you on the river IMO.

if he knows you never fold a pair, why the hell would he raise the turn with A-high?

good point, our hero think he got an Ace but dont think he is trying to make us fold a small pair when he raises turn... what is he then doing?

[BobboFitos]

i think thats a bad fold.
