True, also Antonius’s instincts are generally pretty ace, think he knew Laak was stepping out a little from the start. His whole demeanour suggests that he really isn’t concerned with Antonius’s hand and is zoned in on flat-out winning the pot.

Little wreckless on the part of Laak, seems likes he’s steaming in this hand.

LOL at results oriented thinking: “No then it would be a pretty expensive misread.”

Hard to say – better odds against higher likelihood of being behind. Furthermore Antonius is certainly sick enough to check raise bluff if he bets less. Guess all options are pretty close in ev.
It might have been a more profitable (or less unprofitable ) bluff on Laaks part tough.

I think Antonius would have dogged it if Laak fired about $45-50k on the river, Laak would only bet as much as 80k with a set or with complete air; I can’t see a player like Laak value betting AK or aces for that much.

and Laak might play on the level that Antonius knows that Laak knows that its a bad triple barrel spot. Laak is not the guy that goes for ultra thin value with 77-JJ on the river. His value range is AQ, AK, AA , sets and very rarely straights and thats about it. So Antonius needs to guess if Laak can bet for value here less than 2.5 to 1 compared to his triple barrels.
