Default Re: Chasing with AK

I like the turn call. Why not chase getting 10.5-1 (enough for an average of 4 outs) on a ragged, uncoordinated board against only two players. I think folding this turn would have been a mistake, especially considering you're closing the action.

PF and Flop are v straightforward imo.

If SB is anything but incredibly passive I'm raising this river. After 3-betting PF, the only logical hands that beat you are AA and TT (and maybe AT if SB is a PF LAG). You beat AQ, AJ, most Ax and JJ-KK (I see no reason why SB couldn't have this even though he bet the river). I raise this river, and if I get threebet I'm going to hand SB another $6 just because I'm feeling generous. I guess the reason you didn't raise is because you really REALLY don't want to get three-bet here, as it could easily be from a better or worse hand depending on how aggro the SB is. I raise it up.
