What K holding could he have though? Surely not KQ KJ KT. That leaves only AK for the split pot. So unlikely he has a K I think.

Incidentally it's just very rude of you to make comments about a player you don't know anything about. He must have got the $30,000 from somewhere - playing poker well, most probably. I think it's the nature of the Internet - it encourages people to be rude and patronising to strangers.

um he checked the turn to c/r all-in, are you guys crazy?

checking river is good if this guy is real aggro and will bet overpairs, otherwise weak lead as others have said

Betting either turn or river weak just won't work, there's not enough money left for villain to be able to try to push you off your hand. I'd actually probably like a bet on the flop below potsize because of this reason, and of course do this with all my holdings in this situation.

Just do whatever you would do with AA in this spot, and I expect you to be pushing it in on turn with that.

You are over your head. Stick to the small stakes forum.

Given your preflop action, you obviously have a hand. When you check the turn, you might as well type "I am trying to induce bluff" in the chat box.

It is very unlikely that he called the flop to bluff the turn. And if he has a flush draw, he is going to take the free card, and this is a huge pot.

Bet the turn again. Very simple hand.

Camus, he's not ever gonna cold call with a flushdraw on the flop if he's already decided never to bluff on turn.

Look, he is only going to have a flush draw a small amount of the time.

It is not unreasonable to think that he is calling on the flop with a flush draw given his image. People in these games can be fishes too.

On the turn, if he does have a flush draw, he will check behind. That is just my experience.

However, he is going to have a pair much more often and I want to get all of his money in there.

These games play fast. You will be surprised at the type of calls players make. When you have hands like this you want to play them hard.

I think against the peron you described I would bet about 3/4 pot on the turn. This gives him just enough to push over if he was planning on bluffing and will still probably get action from all the possible mid-high pocket pairs he wants to see a showdown with.


EDIT: The way you played the hand I like a 1/4 pot river bet.
