Unless you're looking for a spot to c/r (I prefer leading) why bother re-raising AK out of position if you're going into ch call mode when it hits a K82 two tone flop?

call/check river
call/check river

i voted call/check and push.

part of my thinking that hasn't been mentioned was that the small bet is more likely to be way ahead or way behind and the big bet is more likely to have draws looking for fold equity in its range.

I don't get the flop play, at all, even if you want to mix it up. As played, anyone like a call, lead river?

i find the interpretations of the turn bet sizes interesting... i would imagine a big bet to be stronger

[ahnuld]

I think its really hard to tell what the bets mean without knowing more about the player. So my only anaylsis consists of how mcuh stack is left to play for and what we can do based off that, but we cant use his bet size as an indicator of his hand imo.

[viciouspenguin]

if button is good, i think we are beat here enough of the time, with these stacks

[viciouspenguin]

although the way we played our hand, we could easily have something like qq

(thisis DAN on cts' comp_

You can say "bigger bet, probably bigger hand" but you can also say "worse odds to call, we need a bigger hand"... in practice the 2 interpretations would play similarly.

For the hands above you are repping qq so its probably best to follow through with your plan to rep it and not turn your hand into a bluff
