Turn and river play?
$1-$2 NL table, lots of $$ on the table , you've gone from$100 up to $1000 over 7 hrs.
You are in the bb, seat 5 ( average player $300) makes it $17, seat 8 calls ( this is the stack you have been focusing on $700 and newby to the game, first time in a casino, getting very lucky) , sb calls $17 ( very good player tag $1000). Look down at AA, no cutsy plays here, raise to $60, call, call call.
Flop Jc-5s-7s, sb bets $100 into a $240 pot. Now this concerns me but I believe my hand beats his. raise to $200, seat 5 goes all-in( $190), and seat 8 hums and haws( newby remember) was going to fold but now decides pot is too big and calls, sb calls $100. Wow, bet , raise, call, call, how do you like your hand now? My big concerns are the sb and now ive committed 25% of my stack to this hand and do i want to keep pushing this one pair? 3 live players. mainpot $1040, sidepot of $30
Turn is a 5d, the all in player now stands up in jubilation and is ecsatic. You know you have lost the main without some help, sb checks, what is your play ?

The turn check is kind of interesting though. Â If you don't have the As, I do think that As, K-Js are possible for the SB, and I'm tempted to bet out here. Â You want to make it sweet enough that the player in seat 8 can call, but that you can fold to a reraise from SB. Â Since most B&M novices don't care about bet size relative to the size of the pot, I might make it something like $75-$125 and hope that seat 8 is bad enough to call. Â
