This is a situation I run in to fairly often which I think I may be handeling terribly. I'll illustrate it with a hand that came up for me a few days ago, and then ask my question.
two fold, I raises with AKo third, MP1 fold, MP2 loose (bad) player calls, MP3 calling station calls, button (good tight player) three bets, blinds fold, and all call.
flop: Q 7 5 r
checked to 3better who bets.
I raise.
So here is the question.
given that I know the player is either willing to bet AK, jacks, tens, as well as made hands like top pair or higher pocket pair of coarse, (though AQ is unlikey in this situation)
OR the player is just extreamly aggressive and will bet if checked to every time, should I be raising here or just getting out as fast as possible with AK (with one or two players still behind me)
Also should capping pre flop here be rutine to get money from the two bad players(with hands that are much worse than mine), or do I want to keep the pot as small as possable?
Thanks a lot
