Good or bad play?

[Tuben]

The blinds are 2000 and i got about 25000.
It is 66 players left.

Utg+3 limps and the rest folds to me on the button i have AKs rises to 6000 sb fold BB folds he called.
Flop is 8K9 rainbow. He checked and i checked ?

Bad check there or should i bet ?

What are you trying to accomplish? You need more information about his hand. Did he flop a set and is trying to suck you in? Did he miss? Underpair? By checking you have no idea if your hand is good and you've given him a free card. I think you need to bet here.

Maybe should answer.. I was trying to trap him ..

Agree whit that.. But if i had bet there and he had rised what is my move then ??

[Tuben]

And if i bet here i was thinking that he maybe will fold QK,KJ,KT ? Nad maybe even raise whit it if i bet..

I think you have to drop 50-70% of the pot sized bet here to establish your hand. If they do have KQ, KJ, KT you want to put them to the test. You announced a big hand pre-flop now you need to follow up on it.

The scariest thing to me is just a call here because it says that they are possibly either on a draw or are slow-playing the set and now I have to figure out which it is.

The flop is way too coordinated to be giving a free card here. Any 7,8,9,T,J,Q and you're not feeling so comfortable.

Bet about 10,000 on the flop and see what happens. How big is BB's stack, incidentally?

It wasnt BB who called it was Utg+3 and he had about the same 20000
