jamyhawk raises to 240<--folds around to me so I will try a steal from the cutoff. I rarely min raise, but I will when trying to vary up my standard play of a pot size raise.
BlackWidow57 calls 240<--this is the one person I don't want to call. They have position on me.

sheila887 calls 120<--this is what I expected.
*** FLOP *** [Ac 9c Ah]<--Great flop for me. I don't like my kicker, but only one other Ace out there.
sheila887 checks
jamyhawk checks<--I decide to slow play it.
BlackWidow57 bets 780<--good.
sheila887 folds
jamyhawk calls 780<--now here I consider check raising, but I decide not to... Afraid he might go away.
*** TURN *** [Ac 9c Ah] [Tc]<--Of course, I don't like this card at all.
jamyhawk checks<--Let's keep this slow, in case he is going to chase a flush with any club. I can't catch up with that unless it is the 5c.
BlackWidow57 checks
*** RIVER *** [Ac 9c Ah Tc] [Js]<--Another card I don't like. K10 is a real possibility.
jamyhawk bets 1,000<--I probably could have checked here, but didn't want to give him the ability to bluff me off of the hand. If he goes all in, I don't think I can call. If I bet out, he's not going to come over me on a stone cold bluff.
BlackWidow57 calls 1,000<--uh oh.

Actually, that last hand, it didn't matter what you bet. The guy had top pair Q kicker with a flush draw. No way he's going away. No way anyone's going away regardless of how much you bet.
