Default AK checkraised by possible blind special

I think one of my leaks is that I don't account well enough for the fact that raises from the blinds on a semi-trash board like this one usually mean a blind special.

Anyone laying down to the turn CR? SB is tight - 22% VPIP or so - but not very aggressive in the 66 hands I have on him.

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. MP2 posts a blind of $3.

at 2/4 he has a weaker ace or is making a play with rags enough times that you have to call down, but expect to lose more often than you win

Default Re: AK checkraised by possible blind special

The only monster hand we see here is a set or 34s. If he does have two-pair, you've got quite a few outs even if you're behind, which I put at perhaps 70-80% or so with the remainder being dudes that slowplayed their A with a weaker kicker. Pot's big, and this is a pretty crappy board for monster hands other than sets, so I call down. Plus the pot's big.
