I don't think he has KK or AA since he merely called (unless he's slowplaying). But the fact your opponent hasn't made many plays tells me he's a litle tight. So, it's possible he's holding K, Q or Pocket threes. I would have reraised on the flop to see what we would do. That miniraise raises and eyebrow. Then, your decision on the turn would be much more easier. I'd probably make a pot bet on the turn. With a straight draw and a flush draw. I'd be happy to take the pot now.

I agree a flop raise whould have maked my life easyer its just one of thouse things where u dont have enough time.
My thought process was something like this.
Min raise? Wtf?
KQ? maby
Slowplayed aces or kings? unlikly.
Set of 3. perhaps.
Weak king? hmmm
J10 of spade? might do it.
CRAP! im timing out...CALL

If the bet is not too big on the Turn, I think I would check-call. If you are up against pp33's or JT, then you still have outs to a fullhouse. If you're up against KQ, then you're all good!
But a better approach may be to bet 1/3 the pot on the Turn to see if that would buy you the cheap river card, or possibly take it down there. If your opponent comes over the top all-in, then you have to fold. If he just min. raises again, I would call.
This is a very tough situation.

I like the check, see what he bets, if his bet is not hugh compared to pot, appox less then 1/3, I'd raise. You would be showing alot of strength and hopfully take the pot down here.

i guess i go with popular opinion here and always raise with ak b4 flop and always drop the hammer if you make your hand on the flop this usually gets the donks out but thats not always the case you are alwys goin to have some idiot that calls crap on the net i suggest playing more live games .....you can usually make your hands stand up more in that situation

For me its an immediate call. I put him on flush draw or an A high straight which is very unlikely. But you should seriously consider the possibility of a set or K high pair. Anyway whatever he has your good move would be to call.

Since no ones intrested heres the results.
I shove over the top and snabelabel instacalls and turns over A10!
River was meaningless and i rake in the pot.

Just thought i was a intresting hand seeing that i pegged vilian as a tight player.
