I recently played this hand which left me thinking a lot. I was on the button and I got this was at the .02/.05 table (building my bankroll from 10 bucks and when this happened it was around 22)... just so you know how I play and how I was playing I have a VP$IP of around 20% so im no wild donk. UTG made a raise to .20 (his stack was 5.57 mine was at 3.59). I called since I had position and I put her on AK, AQ, KQ or maybe a small pocket pair and I figured I had a decent hand for the cards I was putting her on. The flop comes . I really liked the flop since I was pretty certain he missed and I have a gut shot. He bets .35 and I read that as a C-Bet so I call and also I could get my gut shot, plus I wanted to see what she would do at the turn. Turn comes and she bets out .80... the pot is only about 1.17 (minus rake) and what im thinking is why would she be putting out such a big bet if she really has a hand, unless she was putting me on a draw and wanted me to fold, but also she could be semi-bluffing now that she has a gut shot with her ACE, so that made me stick even more to my initial hand I put her on. I called, which I also thought that that would make him think I have a pair or something, specially since I was pretty tight at that table... so I call (remember I am calling based on what I thought he had not to get my gut shot, since I am sure someone will call me a donkey here because they will think I was chasing a gut shot). The river comes , this card scared me because I had put her around AK, but she checked the river so it made me think that she was actually the one that got scared, or maybe also that she was bluffing the whole time and she gave up. The pot is about 2.50 I think so I bet 1.15 just a little under half the pot, I thought she was bluffing and at the same time my story made sense, from his point of view I thought that he could easily put me on a pocker pair or maybe even a 9 connected. Well to my surprise he called showing . I was so confused , I didnt know if he read my bluff or if he just made a donkey call. What do you think?
