AK play vs. TAGy
 

Villian is 24/11 over 54 hands. I did a post a little while ago and most people seem to agree that I am not seeing showdown enough (24% WTSD) and folding the turn too much. I am trying to improve this... how is this hand?

My WTSD% for this session (400 hands 3 tabling Pokerroom) was 33%.

Also, can anyone give some suggestions of types of hands I should post to improve my WTSD% and turn play?

I would have played it the same...

Re: AK play vs. TAGy
 

Why is this worth calling the river? IF this player is a TAG he beats you with anything except for AK and does he 3-bet this on the flop?

I c/f the turn and if I don't c/f the turn I c/f the river as AT and AJ now beat me.

Also he has to have AK 14/4 (1 in 3.5)for this call to be correct, which I think is far from legitimate.

3 bet preflop, the way you played it you can fold the turn against a reasonable opponent

I am not sure I agree with the 3-bet pf due to our position, but it is close.

I agree with True, this is a horrible calldown. Just about anything beats you. Any pocket pair and any hand with a 6,7,8,9,10,J,or Q in it beats you. Your only hope is a split with AK, and I highly doubt AK is betting this river.

im 3-betting this every time, AKs is ahead of a TAG middle openers range and it gives us more fold equity on the flop if we miss

I concur. As played, flop is good, fold turn.

Re: AK play vs. TAGy
 

Yea, river call was pretty out of line. What about the turn though? Most people think I should fold the turn or call one more bet?
