Default Re: Another AK hand, check raised on turn, check to me on river...

Yes, and the existence of hands that you beat OBVIOUSLY implies that you should reraise...

well i'm assuming that your blatant all-caps emphasis and tone of this comment is covered in sarcasm, so i just thank you for your insightful comment.

first i have thought about this hand and will say that part of my comment could relate to the river check, BUT...

with only 1 overcard a LOT of pocket pairs will raise here BESIDES 3 of a kind as well as K-lower kicker. yes a read would obviously help, but i still DO NOT feel that 3-betting here is spewing in any sense. it is an AGGRESSIVE line, but i don't believe it to be that far out of normal play.

Just in case you mistook me for the sarcastic one.

Perhaps "spewing" was an exaggeration. But I will hold some ground and say that it's really unsafe without a read. I agree that I would sometimes 3-bet this as well, but as a standard line against an unknown, I think too often you're opening up yourself to a world of hurt.
