AK Makes 2 pair And I Never Got To Pull The Trigger.

[RickA]

Villian was 23/15. AF was 2.

After being raised on the flop I was trying to CHR AI on the turn. Is an AF of 2 can I trust him to bet the turn.

After the Q on the river I chickened out.

[so sick bro]

what are you waiting for man you have him slaughtered. Reraise this preflop, he's in the cutoff his range is very very wide, you really should be reraising him like every time there i think. I would try to get it in on the flop but let's say we don't and we check the turn, theres no way you should ever check the river, put around a pot sized bet out on the river hope an ace will pay you off

Donkbet the turn he'll have no idea wtf is going on and push

[RickA]

Good point on the river.

I was trying to extract on the turn as I wasn't sure he would call a push. You're probably right I am just complicating matters.

All in all not one of my best efforts.

I actually like the river check to pull a bet from busted spades and a valuebet from worse aces. Then we honor tuff_fish and check/raise them out of their seat.

I 3bet pf always, but I like the call on the flop so that he can't fold his worse aces (which make up the bulk of his range)

as borat would say "wawaweewa". This is really bad, no offense. Reraise pf. 3bet flop. Bet turn and river. You have a guy who raised pf and reraised you on the flop, he likes his hand obv. You've got to raise for value on every single street. Trickyness is waayyyyy overrated. Just let him pay you.

[RickA]

Ha. I wish that is what I was thinking on the river.

[Thremp]

This isn't the type of board you wanna CRAI on.

[RickA]

I certainly don't take offense.

Its all good, i think every player on the planet goes through a 'tricky' phase. Once you and I are playing NL600 together (and filthy rich obv. lolz), we will brag about all of our tricky plays. But not down here methinks.
