UTG shows his busted AcKh
I would like to say I had a solid read on my Opp and knew he was on AK the whole time. I would like to say that but I can't. All I can really say is that I had a gut feel and took it all the way. PF Opp is reraising from UTG which puts him on high PP or AK (and probably not AQ). I don’t do this often (I think I may have done it once before) but this time it just felt right. I think one begins to develop good instincts, initially, by going with a gut feel and having it turn out to be correct. Here I am basically betting that he doesn’t have a high PP. His bet on the flop says nothing about PP v.s. high unpaired but his bet on the turn (not being higher than his flop bet) suggests an unmade hand. SB was obviously on a draw that missed, likely a flush draw.
Comments? If *you* continue on any street do you act differently than just calling?
