    Hands that beat you are JQ, 99, KK, TT.

    For most players, pre flop action kinda indicates its not KK...unless he doesn't know how to play big pairs pre flop. So realistically its JQ, 99, or TT. Would one of these hands really reraise that huge most of the time? It doesn't seem like playing a premium hand for value to me.

    I can think of a lot of other hands that might play that way with that flop that you are ahead of. K9, 9T, maybe Ax of spades even on a semi bluff. Would he limp AK out of position? KQ or KJ maybe.

    Top two on the flop is usually just an auto call for me. Even with a strong read as someone being real tight, they could be switching gears on you right there. Or they might think they have the best hand with bottom two or TPTK...You are probably a much better player than me andrew, and this was very likely a really nice lay down, i just felt like posting my thoughts. I would pay off the strait or set here
