    guys he's just looking to complain about taking coolers/beats

    he'll continue to be the type of poker player we all love, the one that isn't any good but thinks he is, and slowly donates to the regulars.

    We're either way ahead of his busted flush draw, or we're way behind AQ or QJ. As played I lean towards c/cing river, possibly c/f depending on bet size.

    Im no poker expert, but I would bet for a reasonable amount (2500 or something like that). If he raises (which he did not until the river), I would fold or call (depending on the raise).
    I think he had a drawing hand...but its a tricky situation there. If you check to him its easier for him to bluff, since HE will choose the value of his bet. I would check raise only if I am sure to have the Best hand (and obviously, if Im sure the guy will bet).
    He could just call preflop with a monster (very deceiving). Also, I dont think he would raise you with AQ, which would also beat you.
    Other very deceiving hand is when you flop a set...but in this case I think he would reraise you.
    My guess...he has a nut flush draw (AK, AQ or AJ). With AQ he would call you.

    I usually fold preflop. Torn on checking or betting the turn. River is pretty ugly; there's not much we beat other than flush draw and some of those are combo draws with a T.

    theres really nothing you beat anymore besides a busted flush draw...and even some of those hands now have a straight. check/fold
