I think you have more equity if you CR allin on the flop. $70 for him to call regardless and I couldnt see folding AA out of the pot. I think the only hand you are representing is JJ here, because a nut flush is so unlikely and you would want to get as much money as possible with a set on the flop.

[Alibi]

Both of your lines look like JJ+

I wanted to increase my equity vs bare Ac/Kc, hence my line.

I figured and that is what I assumed. But, say you're up against AcA or KcK, does it matter? --Not really.

How about AcK? You're a flip on the flop and if the club hits anyway you're pretty much getting stacked if you lose and win nothing when you're ahead. So I think the best way toaverage it out is CR allin on the flop, hope he has 1) AKo no club and folds or 2) An overpair with no club which will still call, but you're 42/58 to win so its not all that bad.

[IowaSkinsFan]

Are you basing the idea that he may have a bare Ac/Kc because of his flop betting size?

[ilikeaces86]

I dont like this line at all either check raise flop or as played check fold turn most likely. Or if you really think he will 2 barrel here check call it off. This is dumb

[Renton]

yea i discussed this hand at length in irc, and we all came to the conclusion that my line sucks.
