Re: AK oop vs TAG; turn plan?
Checkfold. Our sensible 24/17 opponent has limped behind another player and then called the flop. Cases:
1A. Small pocket pair hit set. 0 outs.
1B. Small pocket pair calling down. 6 outs.
2. Axs/Kxs flopped pair (else why call). 3 outs.
3A. Small connector cards flopped pair. 6 outs.
3B. Small connector pair flopped straight draw and hit something on the turn. 0-6 outs.
4. Flush draw (Axs/Kxs/connectors)
A. Already paired. 2-4 outs.
B. Not paired. Villain has 12-21 outs and will often take the free card.
Certainly you may be ahead here. But unless this opponent frequently floats in this situation there is no way you have pot odds to try and prove it. You have no appreciable fold equity, you are usually way behind, and he has many outs when you are ahead. It will cost 2 BB to try and collect try and collect the 4 BB in the pot.
Check and hope for a free card. If he really has the flush draw you are likely to get it.
