Marty719:
Do u think betting 18k on the turn looks stronger than betting 3k?

WYoung83:
 Dont see need to get it in preflop, you are usually way behind or slightly in front, and with blinds fairly small compared to stack this is fine.

cant belive he tanked KKs on this flop. Wit 2 Aces there, it is more unlikely you have it. A board of A44 for example is much more scary for kk from his point of view. if you belive he had a over pair to your hand, then shoving is actually bad for the reason above. He is never folding kk on this board. you could of taken a stab to see if you can get a cheap river, and with his tank , i think you would of been able to.

I think a small turn bet he is never folding to. The all in was purely to try and illicit a fold in this particular opponent

But my point is, ur a/i bet looks pretty weak and defensive and I highly doubt u r ever folding a better hand than urs.  If he calls w/ kk, then Id say he is almost def calling with QQ/JJ as for the most part wen u flat pre kk=qq in his spot.

I think if you are gng to turn ur hand into a bluff (which I also dnt agree with as ur hand still has show-down value against some of his range), then I far prefer barrelling him than just open-shoving the turn, esp wen he does still have Ax hands in his range some of the time.

WYoung83:
Just re-looked through this hand, really cant see the benefit of shoving turn, in the unlikely event of you having Ax, then you wouldnt over bet shove would you?

LOL, cant belive he slow rolled you with KK, maybe he was out of the room or somthing. Sorry but just so funny that he tanked.
