Review: Hand 3, AKo

[thesharpie]

Edit: I don't know what happened but my comments disappeared when I clicked submit. Anyway, I would fire on the flop if you don't have that good of a read on his PFR%, if you do have a good read on it you should'nt be raising preflop and should probably be folding. I would take a free card if I thought it was likely he had an overpair.

if he had an overpair here wouldn't he be betting out on the flop or C/R you?

I think it likely that your AK is good here...he was probably raising with KQ or some other 2 big cards and you both whiffed the flop, given that check through on the flop and turn.

I would bet the river for value.

I bet the flop, check the turn, call the river. If my flop bet gets raised, I call then fold the turn.
