SB has about 400'ish, BB has about 200, hero covers both

Hero raises AsAh UTG to $15, gets SB and BB to call.

SB seems somewhat decent, and BB is Bankitdrew.

Flop: Ks Js 2h

SB bets 20, BB calls, Hero raises to 60, SB calls, BB calls.

Turn: 9h

SB bets 60, BB calls (And makes it somewhat obvious he's on a draw), Hero calls

River: Ac

SB bets 60, BB folds, Hero?

Comments on all streets appreciated.

Raise bigger on the flop if you must raise. I would just call. It's a pretty drawy board and there figure to be like twenty collective outs against you. Making a small raise puts you in commitment limbo.

River is a call. If SB doesn't totally suck balls he's repping some kind of improvement on the turn. With a read I might value raise or ship it in. His line really does look like he sucks donkey balls and you really should be able to read him better.

What do you think of the turn call?

River is always a call? We are holding the second nuts at this point, I was wondering if this should've been a snap raise since we're not worried about anything but QT...

I agree with the flop, 80 seems better.

You fucked up the hand already on the flop. Your thought process needs to get past "I have good hand, I make good handish raise." You need to think about commitment here when there is $400ish behind. With $200ish behind we can raise to like $80 and ship the rest in on most turns.

His turn donk is one of a few things
o One pair that doesn't want to give a free card.
o Some hand that improved on the turn QT/K9/J9 There are more combinations of QT than the other hands.

How likely is it he donks the turn without improvement? Also he seems to really really want a call.

$45 in the pot, $40 in calls, your call would make it $115 total minus the drop. A pot sized raise is $130.

I would raise like $100 to $120ish and ship the rest in on most turns if I decided to commit on the flop. Then kindly thank Drew for his monies when he tanks. More likely I would just call and trust my ability to read body language and the turn action.

i probably raise this on the river cuz his line was more leaning towards TPGK stuff IMO. Also, you gotta pop up to at least $100 on the flop if you want to build a big pot.

Hero ends up calling and villain flips over KJh for a monster on the flop and turn. Meh.

Consider that if the hands are reversed all the money is going into the pot.

Huh? You kept all the money out of the pot when you had that sick, "my hand is good, but I think I'm behind" feeling. I love players that let me dictate pot size.
