villain is tough regular. can be spewy and overly stationy at times tho. definitely think he has river checkraises in his arsenal. river is still a bet tho right?

tricky spot. i would check it down, only hands that u could get value from are AQ and AT and AT probably wouldnt c/r flop. only reason to bet for me would be to induce a shove from his most likely hand - a missed draw but the villian has to be agressive enough to make this profitable.
if u feel like gambling bet 900 and call a shove, this would be a high risk/high reward play.

i would not bet unless i was calling a check raise.

ok don't flip out, im' leaving your thread.

i agree with chaoslord, i think a lot of value from your AK bet is from calling a shove from his spazz river CR bluffs.

whether or not u feel that constitutes u betting is ur read on the situation, which is obv better than ours.

well i dont think im good &gt;50% if he does checkraise so i guess the check behind was good. he had AQ fwiw and would probably have paid off.

[jfish]

i check, getting into absurdly thin vbets (that beat exactly 1 hand, though a likely one) here vs good players seems bad

[brandofo]

he could have a missed flush draw not just AQ. i would also play 2 pair like villain did here and obv check raise river.

[tubasteve]

what if you minbet and call a raise, just so you open up the action for him again in case he was gonna c/r [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

v good post chaos lord

thought about this hand some more and would appreciate some more feedback. i am leaning towards betting tbh. why in gods name would he checkraise AJ here? would be pretty retarded barring super special history (which we do not have) imo. im gonna check behidn too often for this to be a good c/r spot so yeah i think his range is heavily weighed towards AQ and [censored] like that. i think this might be a bet.
