I played a hand yesterday which I would like some of your opinions on.

UTG: $190.60
CO: $108.00
BTN: $38.35
SB: $203.05 (VILLAIN)
BB: $234.00 (HERO)

Pre-Flop: A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero BB

UTG raises $4
BTN calls $4
SB raises $5 (VILLAIN)
BB raises $20 (HERO)

UTG folds, BTN folds, SB calls

Flop : K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]

Villain bets $20
Hero calls $20

Turn: 7 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Villain bets $20
Hero raises $60
Villain calls $40

River: T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Potsize: $212

Villain checks
Hero is all-In ($134.00)??
Villain calls ($102.05]

Is all in the right move here you think? I have no stats on Villain.

I really don't see the point of pushing on the river. He's not gonna call you with anything worse; you're just throwing away money here unless he's a huge fish.

This is fine. keelem, do you ever bluff rivers? Obv not in this hand very often but..

You made it pretty clear on the turn what you had and he didn't seem to mind. What could he possibly have that calls the river and you beat. KJ and KJ only.

Check behind and probably split with AK.

I would generally put him on TT-QQ or AK after calling that PFR on SB.

Well my thoughts were then, if he just cold calls that turn raise and checks the river, he wasnt obv very strong like trips. So if I push I might steal the pot from an other AK huh?

^^^^^^^
Could be slow playing, you having a draw of some sort would be unlikely based on your play

Yeah, but not on this hand especially with no reads on villain.

This is fine. If I raise turn I raise more than 40 though.

I would raise flop to ~70-75. Also I would raise turn to ~90-100. And AI on river is fine imo. The hands that beat you are KT, TT and slowplayed monsters. I think he calls with worse enough.
