Too Little or Too Much?

We've remarked upon the lack of action at the table. This hand may prove instructive. Rep Porter opened preflop for 55,000 and was called by Huck Seed out of the big blind. Seed checked and called a bet of 80,000 on an ace-high flop, {10-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}. Both players checked the {A-Diamonds} turn.

When a third ace, the {A-Spades}, fell on the river, Seed led out for 41,000. It was a bet that Porter mulled over for a full minute before folding.

"I bet too much," deadpanned Seed as he collected the pot.
