    I know you're supposed to go with your reads, but it doesn't mean you can't feel sick to your stomach while doing it.

    What were these reads exactly? This whole hand just seems like a spew...

    I'd bet the flop less too.

    Think about what hero represents, and what villain represents. He calls twice PF, he's just scared of the A on the flop, maybe he had 10-10? QJs? or some stuff.

    Very nice hand though!

    You should post villain's stats but I really like this hand. I had a similar hand today where button raiser had attention to steal blinds of over 35% but no one took a stance against him. I fell sick while his timer ran down.

    NH sir!

    so what were your reads anyway?

    If you did have AK, wouldn't it be better to just call and let him bluff with you in position? Or does balancing your range outweigh this benefit.

    He is around 30/20, aggressive, capable of making plays. I knew that flop didn't hit him. 0% chance he had AK, very low chance he had any ace.
