*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to AlamedaMike [Ac] [Kh]

2 fold, MiloJack raises to $2, AlamedaMike raises to $7.50, 5 folds, MiloJack calls $5.50

MiloJack checks

*** TURN *** [Ad]

MiloJack bets $7, AlamedaMike raises to $14, MiloJack calls $7

MiloJack checks, AlamedaMike checks

I checked the river 1) because he might only call if he could beat me and 2) I did not want to have to call a bluff check raise.

*** SHOW DOWN ***

AlamedaMike shows [Ac] [Kh] (two pair, Aces and Tens)
MiloJack mucks
AlamedaMike wins the pot ($42.30) with two pair, Aces and Tens

*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot $44.50 | Rake $2.20

Seat 2: MiloJack mucked [Qs] [Qh] - two pair, Queens and Tens
Seat 3: AlamedaMike showed [Ac] [Kh] and won ($42.30) with two pair, Aces and Tens

I'm not as much concerned with your river action but by your turn raise. I would make that bet at least $20. If he called that, i may value bet that river. It would take balls of steel for him to raise that river without the T.

Yeah, the small re-raise on the Turn was reflex. Should have bet more like you said - thanks.

Since I hate being check raised on the river I agree with your check. What the hell does he have to call you like that. ?? Maybe it was A-crap. make a note of him and try to play on his tables. He is a BIG FISH.

Without the proper reads I think you have to check the river. I dont like the turn bet, but I min raise a lot... that scares people out of the pot, specially good TAGs. :)
