    Default Top pair, top kicker

    It's hard to tell here if he's simply playing back at me, or if he really had a hand. With such a dangerous flop, I figured he had me. However, the thought of him having AJ, AT, A9, etc. makes me think my hand might have been good. I also noticed that I should have played it more aggressively preflop. What do you think?

    I'm definitely opening with a raise preflop there, no need to get fancy.

    The flop depends on reads, did you have any kind of a read on him?

    No read. However, at this point I had established myself as a laggy player, so there could be a higher chance that he was bluffing.
