Preflop I bet UTG due to hand strength but more so because I look strong.
On the flop I make a standard bet and get raised small. This screams weak too me, Ace highs and or medium pockets and weaker queens. I flat because 1)my overall hand strength isn't huge, and the odd case that this person is playing the bottom sets like this I dont feel I can get it in at this point. 2) I want to keep his weak hands in.
Turn is basically a blank and changes nothing. I call the 2/3 bet.
River is interesting. I always thought there could be missed aces in his range. I check back because I dont believe I can rep a 6 at all and so only better calls.
