This is why you shouldn’t try to impose logic on the monkeys (see my recent article Level-Headed Thinking). I was pretty sure she would not have checked a T on the flop nor a 6 or 7 on the turn, and I didn’t think she would pot the river if she paired the deuce or had A high. I’m certainly never folding A-high here, and I don’t imagine she expected me too, ie she wasn’t trying to bluff. I think she just decided she had the best hand, and, without even considering my calling range, was going to bet it. And I outmaneuvered myself by trying to impose second-level thinking on a first-level player. I stacked her later, though, so it’s all good.
Ballsy call. Ever consider raising her to get A-high etc to fold?
Obviously I was wrong in this case, but generally I don’t think people are betting A- and K-high in river spots like this in the first place. If I did, I would fold- check-raising isn’t a very believable line. But most people are just going to take the free showdown with a hand whose high card value is often good.
