This was really weird hand last night. On the turn when he raises, my mind was saying fold fold fold. And I wasn't on tilt but I knew I couldn't fold this hand. Like logically it looks right to fold for my mind. But my intuition had a strong feeling not to fold. And I don't know why. Funny thing was I was already tagging this hand as a mistake before I knew what he had lol.

And from watching the replay for the first time. I think I was playing my c game or might have even been on slight tilt cus that raise on the flop is bad very bad lol but then again that weak flop bet could have induce a turn bet... but that's not what I was thinking in game lol.

Why did I have extremely strong intuition on the turn? I don't see how I would have got that feeling.

So lucky in river what villain fold. In this flop i play think more passive , because our stack not very big,,, Minbet in flop its nothing, he sure call with all him range,. better check, and bet in turn 50% pot, if villain again check.

In general, to make the game easier better shove 30bb with AKo , is the optimal solution with the stack, what to not risk very much..

I think preflop is fine

flop it is OK to bet when he checks to you, but then he check raised you....yikes. I think you gotta fold your A hi there. His line just screams AT or JJ+

now as it turns out, you were right that he didn't have a monster, but you also realize your hand was a total bluff, right? So you smelled a bluff and rebluffed. Ballsy, not necessarily bad but in a $5.50 game it may be fancier than is needed to get the job done. You may have gotten him to lay down a hand as strong as A9, AJ or 88 with your line but usually you're gonna get snapped off by QQ+ or Tx. It worked out this time, but I think you'll find over the long run that when you naked Cbet with 2 overs and get check raised you should almost always just let it go.

Good read on this one though! Even if I had your read, I doubt I could pull the trigger.

Click back flop and see if the dude is serious, bump it up to 10bbs and fold to any resistance. No idea why you're cbetting 2bbs but hey-ho whatever.
