**EDIT - I am dealt AK

See how easy that was for me to figure out? Thats why we lead this flop and check the turn. It's a dry board. That's how you play it WA/WB

9 times out of 10 I lead this flop. It just so happens I didn't this time. I guess I was banking on Button betting, given his aggression.

As played, I am now in a difficult spot. How would you play this turn?

Oh no ( [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]), why would you check this particular flop to raise it when villain calls more than twice as much as he bets??? He probably has 2 pair or just a strong ace. Either way, point is you've put yourself in a terrible position on the turn. He may or may not (probably not given his stats) realize the strength you've exhibited. You have to decide which one that call means. I really think you're beat here however given his flop raise. C/F is probably the best play. He's passive, pray he checks behind both streets [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]
