Flopped top boat, slow played vs river gii
Thoughts on this spot.
I went through the hand in my head and which ever way I look at it, as played I think it is a cooler.
- His flatting pre is super deceptive.
- He can be slow playing a T, not to mention AT.
- Based on how aggro he was playing earlier I could include flushes in his range, maybe. He was potting a lot and taking down pots when the nuts changed dramatically.
- I think I just have to check the flop, any merit in betting? I guess building a pot against mid pairs that call at least one street.

Well that was... a hand. I don't understand the preflop raise size (why not pot from SB?), I really don't understand the flop check (such a c-bettable board for our entire range), and I hate the river line (you're relying on him having a very narrow range to get value w/ your check/raise on a card that he probably raises those hands anyway against a lead whilst checking back a lot that would call). Oh, and finally, calling his bet/shove is... optimistic lets say. He doesn't have flushes here, he probably doesn't have AT really. There aren't many hands that beat you, but he's telling you he has one in a spot where bluffing is nonsensical.
All in all, this looks utterly butchered to me. Yes, you were unlucky you made a big hand and so did he, but I think you managed to take the line to win the min and lose the max which is not a combo we should be going for.
Like Tom said, raise bigger pre or just limp behind.
Bet the flop. There are lots of draws that will call your bet.
As played I'd just call his raise on the river, 3b shoving here is overplaying your hand. It doesn't really seem like a cooler, because you had an option not to stack off.
Yeah thanks for the feedback guys, the logic makes sense to me.
Re-reading my comments I think they were in the moment and I kind of got out of line looking for an excuse to get involved with a particular player. So I butchered it from a tactical perspective as well as from a mental one :)
