Small blind could call with a wide range of hands. I would put him Qh Jh for a str8 or flush draw and hit flush on turn. I would fold

calling preflop, flop & turn & leading out only betting half the pot feels like a big hand, could be up against a FH, maybe a flush or straight, but I feel strenght here, (maybe I'm wrong, usually am)

I'd fold AJ here, unless i knew what type of player i was up against, especially if TAG i'm running away, faster than Stu looking @ a picture of me in a thong

That was a hand I played against Kesza in last weeks APF short-handed tourney. He didn`t show the hand but said he had 88

The funny thing about the hand is I made a higher than standard raise pre-flop to 400 instead of 300 which apparently set off warning bells for Kes. The larger raise was for no other reason than the slider slipped and I couldn`t be bothered to change it.

I folded when he bet out after check-calling all the way down. It`s the classic betting pattern of someone who either had me from the start or has hit his hand on the river. I thought he`d hit a set of kings on the river.

Glad to see I wasn`t the only one fooled

he's a real good player, that slip of the slider cost ya I think, I'm sure he would have noticed that too & probabley put you on 77 or lower, maybe ace rag, something like that, so he called all the way, prolly planning on betting the river the whole way, knowing that what he bet, unless you hit really well, you would fold...
