AK problem on the flop...
Can any1 help me on this one...
This happened twice today already..
Say you have AK or even for that matter AQ suited or unsuited in early to mid position. you raise pre-flop say 3 times the big blind and get one caller (2 would be worse but let's say one) in a later position
The flop is a mid flop say 2 6 10.
You make a continuation bet of say half to 3 quarters of the pot. They call. The turn is a blank (to you anyway and doesn't look like it would help them)
Do you bet again? with nothing? Or check (showing weakness)?
And if u bet again and they call again and no Ace or King comes on the river then what?
This is my biggest problem presently. Or should u just see the flop then check? Which would almost certainly state that the flop missed you completely?
Also if the flop is mid but coordinated say 8 10 J and they call your continuation bet and again the turn is blank do assume they are on a draw and bet big to find out? If they call you have then wasted a pre-flop bet, a bet on the flop and a bigger bet on the turn to try and "protect" a hand that you don't even have?
Any suggestions welcome. Thanks
