This was a CRAZY hand - considering my holding. On the flop - I put both players on some sort of draw - it is hard to imagine what else they would be playing here. The thought of one of them having KJ crossed my mind. But after the action on the turn, I figured I was ahead, KJ would have made its move already. What the hell was MP3 thinking?

Played it perfectly IMO. Well done.

Good to see that the players at the $1000 party table are just as bad as the $50 tables. A calling station is a calling station at any level of play.

KJ or JJ would have turned up the heat on the turn, I think hearts would have folded except possibly AQ[h] and possibly Kx[h]. KK and JJ would have been really poorly played, and KK/33 unlikely with JJ being the only set that makes sense. He has KQ is my most likely guess. Value betting the river I think is the best play given that you are ahead of most anything that is smooth calling the turn except KT[h] and AQ[h]. I think $500 is about the right number.

I have no clue what MP3 was thinking, but he gets a note that I should value bet against him more.
