A couple things first. I did not meant to limp, I had typed in $1.20 in the bet box but hit the call button by accident. Then came my next mistake. It got raised and reraised behind me after I acci-limped, I should have put in a hefty bet here. I Should have made it about $9 (abourt 3x the pot). I think I decided that with a raise and reraise, and being out of position, lets call and see how it develops.
Good flop, I lead out and get called in one spot. Doesn't tell me too much. Likewise on the turn. At this point I think I have to eliminate AA and KK from his potential hands, although AT, JJ, and TT are still possible, two of which I'm beating. River comes T and this makes TT (which had me beat anyway) much less likely, but now puts AT ahead of me. This is where the true test comes in. Would you have check called, check folded or lead out? For that matter, other than pre-flop which I know I did wrong, what would you have done diff on the flop or turn? Folding to rivers like this are still something I'm woring very hard on being able to do. Flame on! |

| I think you could've led out for a little more on the flop, but other than that I don't know if I would've played it differently. You can't really fold to that river bet, even if you think there's a pretty big chance that you're beat. The pot is laying you 7.5:1, which means that folding would be a slight mistake even if you only have the best hand 12% of the time. |
