AA 5/5 NLHE game vs solid opponent.

[kano]

We look down at red aces utg +3, the straddle is on and a recreational player has limped (I'm not 100% sure he is here for shits and giggles but it seems likely) . I make it £50. Andreas flats fairly quickly, and the limper calls.

I also think Andreas would be in the top 5 players least likely to be induced, especially at this moment in time where he has not lost more than 30bb in a pot in the last 6 hours.

Check behind given that

I mean I guess he could have AT and, I would think though, that if he did have AT he would prolly consider bluffing with it OTR as actually I'm not so sure you're calling with an OP and he actually wins the hand anyway vs a reasonable section of your range... I've only played a few times with him but I'm not really sure this is his style though, seems a little needless, I think if he has a T it's prolly gonna be or something like that but prolly not.

Think betting really small is kinda mugging him off a bit and just showing him some respect I think will bode well for the rest of the game, he's not folding a T for £200 but I don't think he has a T to fold often enough to worry about that, maybe he has QQ or KK in which case he'll defo call a bet (speshly KK will prolly call almost any bet) I think as well there is more chance of him slowplaying KK/QQ pre-flop than there is of him checking a FH to you OTR but not by much.

With all the evidence i this thread I'm going to predict that i) Adam Checked back, and ii) he either had 6's full or QQ.

Can someone give me a reason why a good live player would check a boat on the river to a player with OP's profile?

Only boat people check is sometimes Jacks full when they lose their heads momentarily. This is very rare surely. I think it's absurd to consider checking.

Well if he think I shove all overpairs on the river when checked too then it doesnt matter whether he checks houses or not on the river, and if by checking he gives me the chance to bluff shove missed draws then he is better off checking. He also might expect me to have gotten my stack in with overpairs before now.

Result?

gotta check the river 2k stack ftw

i think the crux of the hand is that im sure he bets river with everything that beats us, and i dont think andreas is the type of guy who we can induce with a tiny bet, think shoving is somewhat of a freeroll, and keeps us from showing our hand, w/e he might call a bottle but id like to put it on him here and make him think, develops a good image for us and he might just have rivered top Pair which im not sure if he does bet given the action

I think your completely right, apart from I'm not sure what hands he can have that are worse than ours and call, but I think there is a small chance he has checked a better hand. He can definitely do this if he expects me to get in overpairs before now in which case he is hoping I've found a bluffcatcher somehow, or have a draw I'll bluff the river with.

I ended up checking and he snap showed QQ, I then show my hand only for the table to look at me like I had two heads. Fwiw Andreas said he'd check.
