Hi legand73

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: you have less than $8 behind on the turn. Why are we just calling there?

And once we called why not ship river so he doesn't check back?

You have just $8 into $36 (1/4 pot).

A few things. When he opens bigger than 3x pre I expect his range to be a bit stronger. Having said that AA is in his range and we get value from them so I should be looking to get stacks in. I suppose I was imagining KQ and QQ with more frequency than is actually likely. I guess we're getting called by AQ as well after the second K falls on the river aye.

Given the amount of money left I wouldn't worry too much about what beats us as much as what we can get value from for the rest of the stack.

But you are right, KQ/QQ are thre and we lose all the money to them anyway (it's not like you fold the river).
