    Since you raised, I'd fire a c-bet here. If he calls and you dont hit either an ace or a king, I'd let the hand go.

    So, choice D

    That's why I voted for a call, pf. 1200 chips would come in handy here for a bluff at a 1600 chip pot. But now its a 4k size pot and a 2k c-bet means you donked off 1/2 your stack with AT.
    Forget that. Don't compound mistake 1 with mistake 2. Just check. There is a chance that MP3 checks to the turn and you may get lucky. But let this hand go.

    A (check/fold)

    Since he just limped, there's a good chance he doesn't have a queen. I put him on some middling hand or a low-to-medium pair.

    Note, if he is someone who will never fold having caught a piece of the flop, then I certainly check the flop.

    I don't know this. This is only the 4th hand I've seen this player. I have no read on her (him) at all. Part 1 explained what I knew about the players.

    He limp/called PF, so he has 2 pair, Ace hi, or a shit pair. Ace hi and the shit pair aren't betting this. Check/fold. If you can see a turn, bet 1200, but nothing wrong with checking it down.

    I actually chose D. I made a C-bet for 1800. MP3 then pushed all in, and I decided I had donked off enough chips and folded. Didn't get anything the rest of the way and finished in 7th place... barely in the money.
