Default Re: How many barrels do you fire into a pot with missed AK?

I typically will fire another barrel on the turn IF:

-villain is very likely on a draw or has a weak pair that he'll toss after another bet
-I have many drawing outs
-I have position

In this case:
-KJ or J9 are the only drawing hands that villain could have, but AQ, AT, KQ, KT, QQ, TT and 66 are way ahead of you. You might be able to get a villain off AT or KT with another bet, but its not worth tossing a lot of chips in for.
-The only clean draw you have here is J for the nut straight.
-You're OOP

I think this situation calls for a check-fold (and hope for a free A, K, or J river)
