Not a nice place

Van Dice

Button is good, 23/16/2.2, no real history
UTG+1 is 30/3/2.5, and SB is 52/3/2 idiot

I don't like my hand but I had the nuts preflop dammit

Also turn check= good/bad?

Stack sizes:
Van Dice: $525.90
UTG+1: $400
CO: $434.50
Button: $892.90
SB: $363.70
BB: $1577.50


Pre-flop: (6 players) Van Dice is UTG with Ah As
Van Dice raises to $14, UTG+1 calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB calls, BB folds.


Flop: 6c Kh 2h ($60, 4 players)
SB checks, Van Dice bets $50, UTG+1 folds, Button calls, SB folds.


Turn: 7h ($160, 2 players)
Van Dice checks, Button bets $145, Van Dice...

Reasoning behind the check?

I would call now, since might still have the best hand and the best draw.

Why did you check????

As played, I call. He might simply be trying to take the pot from you after you showed weakness.

valor

to avoid getting blown off the nut draw, to under rep our hand, to let him bluff the scare card, etc

I like the check.....

If the reasoning was to get him to bet with a worse hand then you've achieved the objective... call

valor

i would call now and c/f the river barring a read, I would open shove a heart or ace river

Main problem here I think is that my hand is pretty well defined anyway, I've raised UTG and bet into a 4-way pot with 2 very loose players who like to call. I'm not c-betting missed hands here.
If the hand was heads up I have a monster, and imagine the button can be floating a lot, but floating in this spot would be fairly retarded given check-call is very likely from SB and then moron #2 sees a big pot and only $50 back to him.
As he has to put me on a strong hand, he has to have a very strong hand or draw, think he almost certainly raises set though. A flush draw seems to make up most of his range here, or KQ

When he bet the turn so strongly, I think he has a small/middle flush almost always, betting KQ so big doesn't make any sense. Could have KxQh I suppose.

Anyway I think I have to check/fold this river whenever I don't hit an A or heart. Which is at least 78% of the time. The A may or may not be good, I can hit and still lose stack. Heart is obviously great but if I hit, and shove, I don't think I get called often.
Other good scenario is check/check on river when he has KQ or something, I don't think his turn bet is consistent with any one pair hand though.

Odds and implied odds are terrible, so I folded. Cue outrage and abuse lol
