I figured the pre-flop re-raise was a good idea here. His next actions give me an idea where I'm at and has the additional benefit of making my hand look strong on most flops.
His flop call made me hope he had TPTK or similar, but of course I can't rule out the nut flush draw or some sort of AK, AJ, or JJ type draw either. And I certainly can't rule out QQ which would suck, but I don't think I'm running into that often in this spot. Even when I do, he's re-raising me on this flop at least half of the time isn't he?
I don't think I'm behind too often on this turn, but I do have draws to be concerned with. Should I bet low here to keep him in?, or higher to charge him for his draws?
Either way, if river is a scare card, like a straight or flush completing card that doesn't pair the board, what am I looking to do in that event?
