Ultimate Bet
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1./$2.
8 players


Pre-flop: (8 players) Matt2411 is Button with 4Club 3Club
UTG calls, UTG+1 folds, MP1 calls, 2 folds, Matt2411 calls, SB calls, BB checks.

Flop: KHeart AClub 2Diamond ($10, 5 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, MP1 checks, Matt2411 checks.

Wanted a free card here, as i only have a gutshot... well not really a gutshot but only a 5 completes my straight


Turn: 7Club ($10, 5 players)
SB checks, BB bets $5, 2 folds, Matt2411 raises to $15, SB folds, BB calls.

Bet seemed like a flush draw here, or maybe a weak PP, or a weak K, so i raised it up sensing weakness. Immediately after i raised it i regretted the small raise that i made, i should have made it $20 instead of 15, 15 was still giving him odds... but really i thought i could take the hand down, that bet OOZED weakness

River: 4Heart ($40, 2 players)
BB checks, Matt2411 bets $30, BB calls.

His check made me think yes he was on a draw or had a weak king again, he had been relatively tight seeing 17% of the flops and had he had AQ he would have bet on the flop, AK definitely raises before the flop and/or on the flop, so maybe a weak draw, or a mid PP maybe? Betting really confused me here. I felt a good sized bet would take it down.

Results:
Final pot: $100

Critique my read please. (showdown in white shown below)



Showdown:


matt2411 shows 4c 3c.
matt2411 has 4c Kh Ac 7c 4h: a pair of fours.
sideout31 shows Jh Ad.
sideout31 has Jh Ad Kh Ac 7c: a pair of aces.


Hand #31044395-1881 Summary:

$3 is raked from a pot of $100.
sideout31 wins $97 with a pair of aces.

Against the same guy...now the question is, can i toss it on the river? I CANNOT get a read on him, none of his plays have made sense to date.

Ultimate Bet
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1./$2.
9 players


Pre-flop: (9 players) Matt2411 is Button with KClub KSpade
UTG calls, 5 folds, Matt2411 raises to $10, 2 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: QDiamond 9Club 8Spade ($23, 2 players)
UTG checks, Matt2411 bets $20, UTG calls.

Turn: 6Spade ($63, 2 players)
UTG checks, Matt2411 checks.

River: 8Club ($63, 2 players)
UTG bets $40, Matt2411 calls.

Results:
Final pot: $143


UTG shows Ac Ad


My thought process on this hand is what would he limp call with preflop, check call on the flop, check, then bet on the river? I limited the hands down to AQ, MAYBE KQs, maybe JTs, 99, 88, or 67s(maybe).

I was close to folding on the river because i cant see anything that i beat that plays this way... unless its 67s, AQ, or KQ

thoughts?
