Or AT for that matter... I was feeling spunky and decided to raise.. His reraise threw me for a loop... I actually said "You dont do that in Limit" I instantly put him on AA or KK, but called out of curiosity... Then the A on the flop, I was 80% sure he had KK, especially the way he played it... Then on the turn, I jsut called down out of curiosity again, and I hade some outs now... I screwed it up, he screwed it up... but who screwed it up more?

That hand just transpired oddly. If you put him on KK you played it perfect, and it looks as though he's trying to slow play his top set. I don't really see too much wrong with either guys play, the only problem I see is if he's on KK he's not gonna take another shot at that pot after the flop. Once he's called on the flop he knows KK is beat. At this point I'd be worried when he led out with a bet again, since your raise did nothing to scare him. I would have lost that hand as I would have laid it down after the turn, cause I'd have him on a set.

Marm,

Didn't you post another thread complaining about some clown bustng your good hand with runner runner to a straight?

It seems we are getting quite machiavelian here.

Lol.

Scoop up the chips and don't worry about it.

Meh, basically, as Suck said, it went down just weird. I kinda went huh? after it, even though I kinda knew what he had PF.

people who reraise/cap and then check A-high or K-high flops think they are being stealhy, but they are actually just confirming that they have AA/KK.

my usual stance on this is bet the flop. they usually check the turn trying to checkraise, so I check behind. then I call their bet on the river (unless I make a RR straight )

NFH NEMO

Yup.... I was just too curious to let this one go....
