$100 game
Hero and Villian have full stacks.
UTG is a good player. (better than me). He is on all 3 of my tables and at least double the buyin at each.
UTG limps
Hero is in LP with KK.
Hero raises to 6xbb, UTG calls.
Flop: AA<brick lower than 9> (Pot is $13.5)
UTG checks, Hero bets $10, UTG thinks…calls.
Turn is a brick.
UTG checks, Hero?
River is a brick.
After his flop call I was done. The turn check could very well be to induce a bluff. If he checks on the river, do I find a value bet?
Standard?
His comment after the hand was “you can win with kings there”

Turn, check behind. I call a smallish bet on the river. I value bet if he checks.

Given the read, I check the flop and raise his turn bet.
Actually, I probably run that line too often against less aware folks too...

"Any 2 cards can win baby! I'm rather fond of the suited ones." "Do you like to play craps too?" "The Pass, Don't Pass line is fun, but the center of the table is where all of the REAL ACTION is."

why check the turn when you are probably 90% ahead of his range and he wont donk the river if hes better than you.

We don't want to play a big pot against a strong player in a way ahead/behind situation. I'm going to assume he's strong enough to take this away from us or otherwise make our life difficult. Generally, I just try to get to showdown in spots like this. I like to play big pots when I'm up against a fish or can put myself way ahead of someone's range.

betting 3 streets for value is a big pot?
If we'd bet the flop and probably only raised to 5bbs preflop we could have c-bet the flop and been done with it.
Do good multitablers limp Ax utg? Not really.

Yes. It's raised pre-flop, 3 bets gets a lot of the money into the center of the table.

Axs is a bread & butter hand. Read said nothing about multi-tabling nor playing like a nit.

That was sort of my reason for posting. Thinking along the lines of...if I respect him and his play, would he be likely to have an A in this spot. The problem is AK, AQ may limp call raise UTG. So I guess we have to give him credit and play it careful.

"Good player" is such a lacking read. What's his gameplan? What sorts of hands is he playing like this? Does he like to float around or make hands?
To rattle off a few "good players"
JacksInTheHole - Maybe a fish, certainly thinking. Plays lots of hands, strong hand-reader, knows how to grab an unloved pot from the typical weak players.
PiratePeaty - Big bad postion bully. Otherwise a nit, except he doesn't fold good hands post-flop without good cause.
LukiePlaya - Very strong ABC TAgg who knows how to play DEF too.
All 3 of them have different ranges here.

Well, my reads suck I guess. During the hand I would have said he isn't likely to float the flop. It was checked down and he shows JJ.
I guess he correctly read me for a C-Bet and got to showdown cheap.
