Re: Postflop play with AKs
No, pushing isn't terrible.
If you're beat here you are beat, so don't worry about that. Any T will push at some point given your stack depth and you will have to call.
If Villain will call the push with 22-99 and QJ then I don't mind it one bit. You do lose value from the type of player who will bluff lead the turn or river.
I actually don't like checking to the river because it lets off the lower PPs and QJ too easily. I'd rather bet the turn and river for 300 each as even Ace high will probably make crying calls at the $5s. QJ will likely come over the top of the turn bet, another nice sde benefit.
