Problems start on the flop with this girly minraise.
I'd make a small value bet, I guess every A would have at least bet the river again after you checked turn (reason BTW?)
behind.

[Mike Kelley]

Readless i probably check and expect to see A rag.

[Maksim]

What I have to do on the flop then, if I am acting after him?

[wikemang]

Check behind on the river, I'd expect any ace to call a river value bet.

[Mike Kelley]

Acting after him is ideal. You should raise the pot though if you are going to raise here. I probably make it $5 or so.

I like it because it makes all but the best aces slam on the breaks or fold. and you win the hand when you don't have the best hand.

Really, you have only two options here: folding or raising like a man...

[Maksim]

Thank you for advises. He had KQ in his hand.

[karlwig]

Check for sure. Had you just called the flop bet I'd maybe valuebet the river. But with this line you cannot expect to get paid by a hand you beat. I don't see queens call you here at all. I read above that you might get ace-rag to fold to a river bet, but I still think it's very risky. It's too late to make this hand a bluff IMO. Had you bet turn, gotten called and then got a check on river, it would probably be more safe to bet river expecting an ace to fold.

[Maksim]

One question more btw. If I raise flop 5$ and he calls should I bet turn? I think it will be for shure he is ahead and would not fold.
