Give me a line (AKo)

[Entity]

1/2 6max game (don't have the HH with me).

Bad passive UTG limper limps, decent (~20/12PFR) MP raises, I 3-bet in the SB with AKo. UTG calls, MP calls. Three to the flop for 10SB.

Flop is QT6r.

I hate betting, I'm not fond of check/calling, and I don't care much for check/raising. Any good lines for this one?

Bet the flop. You still more then likely have the best hand.
Also lead the turn with no resistance.

you are basically saying you will only check/fold. 10SB ill give you half your overcard outs and 4 for the straight.
youve got almost an open ender. you will call a bet, so i say continue with your pf lead and bet this yourself. any heavy resistance and im out, but i can live with calling one raise to see the turn. im hoping you have one of the reds, so you have the added backdoor one-card flush draw at your disposal. so for the turn im hoping for another one card of my suit, the J, the A, or the K. ill even take a Q as a nice fat scare card. i doubt the passive is going anywhere on the flop unless it missed him 100%. so we can always expect them to come along and contribute to the pot.
if the turn is a blank like a 2 or 4 black i think your hand is still worth another bet. if MP decides he likes his hand on a blank, then i most likely give up especially if passive is still in the pot. i hate having nice hands out of position.

Really, A bet here is mandantory. You waiting for a flop of AAK?

I don't know why, but I probably go for a checkraise. Maybe it scares off AT or JT?

There is no way in hell I'm check-folding this flop. It was a rainbow flop, so no one has a flush draw (and I don't have a bd flush draw).

The only reason I hate betting is I'm getting raised here by the decent aggro a good portion of the time. I think checkraising here might be good, but I'm not sure.

Anyway, just looking for a line to mix it up here.

what you said just came across as everything sucks but check folding.

It was more of a "everything sucks including check-folding."

Folding here is the worst, so I'm debating between betting, check-calling, and checkraising.

continuing with your pf lead with a bet sounds best to me. unless you are quite sure that mp will bet if you check and that the passive limper will fold for 2-bets after you c/r.

i think all roads lead to betting.
