Just want to know what you would do with a sequence of events such as this?
Think before acting, AA not always best hand, 23o not worst

First comment - I would tend to bet the flop a little more - half pot won't take it down - if he doesn't have an A or a flush draw he's likely folding and I'm satisfied with that given position and the board texture. If you're min-raised there, you have a more difficult or less difficult decision depending on how you want to chase. I'm a little weak, so unless I have a strong read that he's on a flush draw there, I'd probably lay down to the minraise, assume the A and not chase a 2 outer that puts a possible straight on the board.

You certainly have to lead out the turn - 2/3 pot to deny the flush draw odds - if he pushes you still have 10 outs presumably.

Range of hands for opponent here?
A with K-8 kicker, TT, 66, AA (not likely), any flush draw,
KJ (particularly suited and possibly KJd)

I'm putting opponent on the A here first with the minraise an attempt to determine whether or not his A is good since you halfpot bet the flop, the flush draw second, though I'm not going to give him odds to chase it.

I am curious what most would do if he minraises the turn again. Sometimes I would call - but most of the time I would push and pay off KJ that got lucky for me to catch a good enough second best hand to pay it off.

I would open push the turn. NL25 players tend to call too much and don't raise often enough.

Think like a freeroll. Make a hand and go deep. They follow often enough. He'll think you're bluffing the straight or something and call with the ace.
It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

My over-bets get called way too often at the NL 100 level. I think I might have gotten two folds yesterday...
