This is almost identical to a hand posted yesterday except in that case the hero had AK for top 2. The consensus was to lead flop, I think the same applies for this hand. If you get stacked then so be it in a lot of ways. The only alternative here is to try and reduce river losses if in fact u are beat.

Would be interested to know how CTS wld play it.

id prob just call the flop. hardly ever do does someone check raise here as a bluff or semi bluff against the preflop raiser after just flatting out of the blinds, so by check raising youre pretty much saying i have 2 pair+.

i like this as long as you lead the turn. In this hand probably have to bet, eventhough the evidence for c/f seems nice

i cant see how he ever gets to this river with worse than a straight or a boat...

i really dont think c/f is that bad unless he's absolutely insane. i'd maybe call a smallish bet

Is just calling rather than squeezing standard for these stakes? My initial impression is to raise PF, but no one has mentioned that so I assume against this guy at these stakes calling PF is standard.

Is traheno likely to call the river bet with AQ, AJ, A rag? Would it be worth considering betting 2k again on the river hoping to get a call from KQ, Ace rag+? (with the intention of calling AI rr if he forces it).

This hand is similar to the other thread ('15/30 deep bluff' thread) where the hero checkraised (on turn tho)and pushed AI on river - in that case it was a bad river bluff card. Could the same be said here - that you are not getting called AI unless beat? In the other thread I suggested he take the line you took here, checkraise flop and lead turn and river as it screams strength. Therefore if you bet 2k instead of AI on river here could u expect some light calls as villain would presume you would push river if had a big hand, e.g. full house.

Player dependant maybe? I don't really know Traheno's game.

its pretty ridiculous to put AJ or AQ in trahehos range after he calls your turn bet.
