bet bet bet.

At those stakes, anyone that has you beat will NOT check the river. Value bet like no other.

Villain probably whiffed with QT. You definitely need to put a bet in here.

On contraire, it's at these stakes that they like to get "tricky" and check-raise the river. Could be the case here, but I still think he's ahead unless villain donked two pair on the river with his suited K2.

Oh sean, you so cwazy.

It's like you walked up to a mentally retarded person and told them they're kind of chubby, too. You always pick up on the right idea, my friend, but you miss the more glaringly obvious problems that would make your decisions so much easier. ^_^'

P.S. why no raise preflop?!

P.P.S. Tricky or not - I've seen more newbs terrified that they're going to win nooooothing. Tricky on flop + turn maybe, but not on their last chance to steal your pennies.

9 times out of 10 I raise pre-flop here. I had raised pre-flop the previous two hands and wanted to mix it up.

no offense but when u raise 2 hands in a row, and then get AK, u just have to raise, most of the time people will think ure full of crap and will pay you off nicely, and if u miss the flop u fire and then slow down if u get called

All the more reason to do it again! Typical low stakes players won't believe you have it the third time in a row, so you're probably more likely to get played back at when you hold a strong hand.
