Re: AK with ace but board is scary.
It may sound weird but I often throw a min-raise on the turn in the intention of checking it back on the river there, as he could be on a draw or a weaker Ace and will call down with them and reraise the better hands. I think you gain more when ahead and lose less when behind than if you just call the bet and try to decide what to do if he bet again on the river when he could easely have outdrawn you.
