Default How to maximize AK flopping AKK boat

Flopped the near-nuts with AK and was wondering ho anyone else would have played it. I think I played it probably about as poorly as I could have, but chances were I wasn't going to get any action anyways. Unfortunately this was on my first orbit and I don't have too much information on the opponenents. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks,
Ace

Bet.

$35 on the flop. Yeah, it's unlikely you're getting any action this time. On to the next one..

i see two clear cut ways to play this. the better way in my eyes is to bet the flop like someone else suggested and if u get called check and hope they'll bluff the turn and u can try and get some value. the other way is super duper slow play. i think if u check the flop u have to check the turn given your position and if no one bets hope for something cool looking on the river and try to bet for some value, no offense but the way u played looks a lot to me like atleast trip kings, i wouldn't play with you.

I agree with stu unger, I would either bet the flop or the river, as those are the two best spots where your opponents might think its a bluff, on this flop I would probably just check it down and bet the river. Give them a chance to catch up and give u money.

I would bet the flop hoping someone else had the case King. Or you could wait until the river and overbet the pot hoping someone caught a smaller full.

I was actually in this hand as it turns out.

Why do you think they will call a bet after the flop?
To me, it look like noone had anything here.

Make a weak lead on the flop. Let them try to bluff you. Its pretty likely that you hit the flop too hard to get any action though.

Lead the flop.
If called, check-raise the turn / bet the river.

Nothing says "I have a monster" more than raising pre-flop and then checking.

What's your standard continuation bet?

Bet that on the flop.
