Agreed, I guess he realized he wasn't good and tried to bluff. Super thin if it was for value.

I don't like it then. c/c's three bets with something that doesn't beat QJ? Unless Ivey is calling really lightly, I think a check is better.

[Jason Strasser (strassa2)]

meh, he had king no kicker and called for just the reason that I was bluffing, if he was a little lighter he'd call also.

Hmm...maybe Ivey is calling lightly. How could one figure out if this is the case or not? Maybe because he c/c 3 streets with TP4K?
