1/2 NL
Villain straddles, I raise AdQd to $16 from MP and get 2 callers, Villain raises to $40.
I look at his stack and see what looks like $60ish in red with a $100 bill. I call, other two fold.
Flop AsKc6s (pot $112)
Checks to me and I bet $70. He raises all in and I learn he has two hundred dollar bills and it’s $140 more to me…
