If the stacks were 200BB+, I can understand, but he still had implied odds for the set value, so, actually, I can't, lol.

Maybe he folded because it's so obvious what you have.

Try raising it a decent amount to sow a seed of doubt in his mind that you may have QQ/AK/JJ or something. Tbh there is only one hand you can have there is AA.

While that is true, I still think that most players holding KK in that spot will talk themselves off their right read and ship it.

Another AA, someone raises 5x, I smooth call in the cutoff, blinds fold.

Flop J63 rainbow, he bets 2/3 pot, I call, trying to trap. Now, a Q comes off and he bets pot, getting a little scared, I just call again. River duece 2/3 pot again, I just call.

Does anyone find a raise here? After all, I just have an overpair.

Geno: It depends who you are playing against and the stakes. I think a lot of players will still see through the gay min raise. From the way it played it's quite clear he has a premium hand. Small chance he is squeezing I suppose. RR it more and watch him talk himself into you possibly holding QQ or whatever.

2nd hand: Dave, it depends on how deep you both were and who raised it and how much you have left. You have completely underplayed your hand but what is he possibly putting you on? I think if I didn't have much left I would just ship it in. If we were both deep on the river still then it's going to suck when you raise and he reships with his set of queens. I might just call if that's the case. Miaow will know what the do.
