Default Re: AK Hand - Let me have it

loose-passive players don't bet rivers if they can't beat A-high as a general rule. I think a bluff here is pretty unlikely, unless opp is not as loose-passive as you think.

turn chk is very opponent dependent. Some loose-passive players like to call the flop w/ almost anything and then fold the turn if they miss, others call down with any piece of the board/small pair/a-high. You have to know which type of passive player this is to decide whether to bet the turn or not.

turn call is borderline too, we are getting 4:1 and have 10 outs vs. small pair or Tx, 7 outs vs AT or KT, and 4 outs vs. a J (0 vs. JT/J7).
I imagine we average 7-8 outs or so, so the call is pretty close.

I think we can safely bet/fold the turn if we have some folding equity on the turn, since loose-passive isn't going to raise us w/o a Jack.
