Default Re: boring standard AK

There are plenty of people out there who call with AQ on this turn and there are also plenty of people who fold a pair of tens or smaller. In fact if I were the MP1, I would very seriously consider folding pocket tens after the turn bet, especially after the SB calls.

once the pot gets big, it's almost not possible to push out people holding a JX or TT or even a worse pair (in this game). the consideration here is really between the possiblity between both opponent missed and at least one opponent hit that J high board. also should be considered is the showdown value of AK in this 3-way pot. turn bet is less wrong if hero's hand has no perceived showdown value.

river call is bad because for the purpose of picking a desporate bluff from AQ AT A7, hero should have raised to ensure SB's exit.
