*blind*

You screwd up the flop man!!!!!!!!

The river's fine. you only need to win 1in8 times. something like 13in100 times. But he likes his '9' or AQ (or TT).

Bet the flop. Making them pay at least something to draw, even correctly, is "infinitely" better than making them pay nothing to draw.

Re: AKs. Should i have been scared??
 

I could go either way on the checkraise if that was your intent; a free card generally wouldn't hurt too much if you whiffed (though this was unfortunate if he made the straight). I think I'd rather bet out though as I have the momentum.

Re: AKs. Should i have been scared??
 

pre-flop good
bet the flop
rest fine

Re: AKs. Should i have been scared??
 

I think not betting the flop is pretty bad, not because of fear of giving free cards, but because of missed value. I also don't like C/Ring because villain only called our PF 3-bet.

I can only assume that you mean, "Trying to checkraise the flop when you were the preflop 3-bettor and nobody capped is the worst idea ever." Who do you think will bet for you, and why?

Re: AKs. Should i have been scared??
 

Betting out with the best hand is underrated.

If you do the river can be bet/fold or check/call.

Bet the flop. Were you trying to check/raise? You were the preflop aggressor, you can't try to check/raise here.
