nice pot, but i was really disapointed i didnt see you raise on the flop. a check raise would have been beautiful there.

Why would you say it's best to raise the flop? I figured the board was safe enough for me to slowplay.
Just an fyi: I didn't know this was PL until a couple hands later when I tried to make a raise bigger than the pot. lol.

Calling all in from the button was really weird, with absolutely no hand.

He would've even lost against AKo in that situation, so the last move was definitely poor play of your opponent!

Maybe your call confused him (as opposed to a raise)

granted, you were going to win a nice pot either way since the Button was a total moron who thought his Ace high had you beat. But raising the flop may have scared away the chaser in MP3. he called anyway, so I guess he thought you guys didnt have much.. and bam, he draws out on the turn making you the underdog. and you luckily rivered a boat to scoop both pots.
