    Hand History #331198167
    basically i put my oppo on AJ, i think my bet sizing particularly on the turn should have been bigger, it seems min-raising when you have an uber strong hand is the fad at the minute so set alarm bells ringing, didnt re-re-raise as i didnt want to inflate the pot massively with us both being 200bb deep. the river bet screams of desperation to get paid, sigh.

    info on oppo non existent, not been involved in many pots if any at all and not played him in the past or at least i dont think i have (probably lol) does anyone call here?

    I like the way you played the hand and the bet sizing. Up until the river that is...heads up vs unknown who could be betting anything, including a bunch of Aces you beat. call call call.

    You should have re raised the turn, since you didnt you have allowed ur oppo to take the betting lead and so he could be bluffin, strange bet tho if he had the nuts (effectively) 77 into 77. played bad imo

    lol!

    If flatting the turn encourages him to bluff the river, that's got to be a good thing.

    ahhh well I agree with what Pryce said, he set it up well by flatting the turn, so he under-reps his hand, allows the villain to value bet worse, and also continue his bluffs, then just snap call the river. 

    I'd be in no doubt that I was ever folding the river, which is why I like the call on the turn if I think he's capable of bluffing the river too.

    it was one of those hands where you think to yourself, my oppo has this certain hand, ive done this countless times, gone against my gut and my gut was right. i think it was a good fold, hopefully get to see it. the guy has been playing solid on the table and built a nice stack up, not seen him step out of line which leads me to believe he wasnt on a bluff, possible he could have had A10/AQ but i smelt a rat. god please say i was right lolololol i like to be the bluffer not the bluffee :]

    tbf I think he probably knows there is a fair chance you have an Ace and therefore pots it for max value. Why bluff someone when they've called a c/mr on the turn with two Aces out there?

    It's probably a great fold but the way you set the hand up you have to call anyway for the x amount of times he's an unknown fish bluffing at the worst time

    edit: + you have a sick hand init

    wOw!

    I almost chocked on my dinner when i saw that you had folded this Hursty!

    then reading it back, it does look like you are beat, but against an unknown he could have anything...

    Hope they show this on the poker clinic so we can see what he had!

    good fold imo, i wouldnt be at all surprised if he has pocket jacks here, this would be a pretty sick bluff and your best scenario would be a chop

    i think if he has a weaker ace its a pretty thin value bet on the river considering you opened utg and how you played this hand so i wouldnt expect him to pot it, the only Ace i would pot bet for value would be Ak which is a hand you can flat an utg raiser from the blinds with, i dont like calling this amount on the end for the sake of note taking,

    i think if you fold here everytime in this same scenario you will save money
