So I ended up playing quite a few hands with Matt Affleck at the Bike, he's in town for the WPT Legends of Poker Main Event, and had just flown in and was at the Bike for a tournament, which I played in. He must've busted out. I don't know much about him other than a) he's got a lot more money than me, and b) he had a bad beat.
Well after the tournament I decide to mess around a little bit in the 5-10 game he's sitting in, uncapped buy-in, effective stacks are $1300.
I decide to mix it up a little bit on this hand.
Hero is CO with Kh6h.
UTG+1 limps, 3 folds, villain calls, I raise to $35, 2 folds, BB calls, UTG+1 calls, villain calls.
Pot: $145. Flop is KcKsTd rainbow.
BB checks, UTG+1 checks, villain checks, hero bets $85.
BB folds, UTG+1 folds, villain calls.
Pot: $315. Turn is Ts.
Villain checks, hero checks.
Pot: $315. River is Jh.
Villain bets $300.
Hero: ???
My thoughts: There is an argument here for everythign except folding. Perhaps I'm playing this pot a little timidly, as I don't have much information about my opponent.
This just seems like a spot where it's easy to get in a jam with a loose re-raise. I'm already fortunate enough to have walked into the third nut with a garbage hand like K6 when I was just messing around to begin with and stumbled into a big hand.
