    You don't have to be right half the time to make this call correct, but it's still close. Any reads on opponent?

    This is a really shitty and strange way to play AK, which is a hand you'd really hope to see, so you can rule that out. Also, a pretty stupid line with 10s, 6s, or even a hand you'd hate like QK on a very scary flop unless he was expecting you to come over the top of his weak bet, or he is worried you have AK or KK.... KJ is another possibility, as is a missed nut flush diamond draw. If he played 6s or 10s this badly, I almost think you have to pay him off. Plus, I think he would've pushed allin with a set on the turn. The one hand I'd be very afraid of would be KQ. Still, I think he would make a callable bet on the river with top boat, or any boat for that matter. On the other hand, he knows you really like your hand and will probably call his river bet. I think you can put him on KQ, KJ, K10(?), Axd, 66, 1010, with a small chance of QJ or a lower king. I think you have to call (getting better than 2 to 1), but know that there is a good chance he has KQ.

    Sorry, I am really confused about this hand. It's definately an example of how being out of position sucks sometimes. Results?

    He just called your turn raise so I'm guessing he's got TP. Your river check looks scared so his push would be expected with any K. I think you called and he's got KT. I could be wrong and I don't doubt it.
    I'll be a rootin' tootin' shootin' damn fool, protectin' my chips.

    Crying call. I wouldn't be surprised to see you win this, and I wouldn't be surprised to see you lose, either. But I think you have to call, pot odds are pretty good.
