    Default Bloating Pot With A/K Suited : Bad Turn Play :

    Havent got alot of infomation on villain bar that he his fairly agressive and his range on the button or big blind is very wide as far as i can tell (Havent seen him fold his button or BB in around 6/7 orbits). A few hands ago i saw him check raise someone in postion then fold to a very small bet on river & also

    8/16 (4 ante) Poker Stars Ring Game :

    HERO (Me) $62.76 dollars) Button
    Villian $35.40 dollars) BB
    Villian : Limps for 0.16
    Button- Fold
    SB - Fold
    HERO : Ac/Kc - Raise to 0.64
    Villian : Calls 0.48

    Flop : 2c/Ad/5h
    Villians : Raise Raise to $1.15 (Roughly Pot)
    HERO : Call $1.15

    Turn : 10d

    Villians : Raise to $3
    HERO : Re-rasie to $9.50
    Villian : 3 Bet to $15
    HERO : Call extra $5.50

    River : Ah
    Villians : Insta Shoves all in for $18.61
    HERO : Calls $18.61

    SHOWDOWN : Villians Shows 5/5 for Full House
    : HERO shows A/K for 3 of a kind Aces :

    Wierdly through-out all this hand i had a bad feeling and wanted to just C/C or flat call all the way but for some reason i decied to bump it up on the turn when the second diamond hit, dident want to let him runner runner me. My biggest downfall is the shove at the end, what else would he be shoving with? A smaller Ace ? Possible but unlikley . When i was in the hand it stank of boat beacuse i had bloated the pot i was sort of priced in. So yea one of the worst plays on my part any suggestions or advise would be helpfull .

    There's no need for the turn raise. If I was going to raise anywhere it would be on the flop and barring that I would just call down.

    If I call turn and he sizes it weakish looking on the river I might be tempted to raise river.

    Yes, raise Flop to see where you are at. It's obvious that Villain got something, so raising Turn and making the pot grow is not good I believe. Call him down
