Default Sticky live postion

Hand has been bugging me for a while so thought I'd post it.

B&M full table. 2-5 spread limit with 5/10 kill on any $40 pot. This is a kill pot.

I open raise AKo in EP and MP (ok but unpredictable) player calls, LP calls (LPP), I call.

Flop is 3 low cards rainbow. Possible gutshot out there.
I bet, 2 calls.

Turn another low card pairs the board.
I check, checked around.

River K
I bet, MP raises, LP cold calls 2, Hero????

Comments?

Is the preflop action right? How do you call your own raise?

What are the suits? What are the low cards?

I guess if this is anything like my live loose-passive small stakes games, I'm expecting MP to have whatever board card paired, and he tried to get tricky with it on 4th street. I have guys in my game that check the nuts in position on the turn to "disguise their hand". The pot is big, so I think you have to call the bet, but don't expect to be good here a ton.

An 8BB pot triggers the kill? And, once it's a kill, does a $40 pot make the next hand a kill, too? So, once you have one kill pot for the day you're playing 5/10 from then on unless it gets folded to the BB or something? Weird.

Easy river call given your reads. MP could be paired anywhere, have a mid-pp, or complete air. I'm more concerned with the LP having trips than the MP, quite frankly, but he too could have any piece or a mid-pp of some sort.

A bigger question for me is whether or not we fire again on the turn. If it'll get MP out, and has some chance of getting LP out, then I do it, I think.

Yes, most hands end up as Kill pots.

MP I wasn't too worried about. LP CC 2 bets on the river was what threw me.

I folded. MP showed QQ and LP mucked. It made me sick and everytime I think about it I felt I should have called. One of those catastrophic errors you hear about.

9BB(?) in pot when it one back to you on the river and you close the action. I would call, and wouldn't be too pissed if set, trips flush etc. beat me. I think you have odds to call.

Peace,

You have to call the river. The turn is a great card to bet.
