Re: Scuba_Curtains: AK hand 2
on the button, i might pop it 175-200ish. from SB, something a little more terminating maybe? a little safer proposition finding us HU to this point. L1/L2, i'm sleeping on this one just as often (almost always multi-way). it looks a bit excessive...maybe hero has the goods on CO.

Maybe he's trying to end it now since he's going to be OOP for the rest of the hand. If villain does call, any continuation/probe betting from him will be more expensive because the pot is bigger.

Re: Scuba_Curtains: AK hand 2
Yea I dont mess around from the blinds. My raises are almost always of the extra large variety, and theres no way I can just allow the cutoff to raise and not fight back against him aggressively. If the raise came from an earlier position, I'd probably just fold.

I hope you are in the mood to explain that one, because it will at least be an entertaining read. I mean, somebody makes it 90 chips and it's folded to you in the SB with AKs... there's 135 in the pot, it's 75 more to you (assuming level 2) and you think you should fold? I can't say I understand.

You're risking 260 chips to win 90 and if you're called you're sure not happy playing this big a pot OOP with AK. I don't see why calling isn't a valid option. Yes you're OOP but AK in a smallish pot isn't that hard to play. If you even do something as simple as check-folding when you miss and check-raising allin when you hit I think you'd do just fine. I think if you never call here you are missing an opportunity to add some deception to you game and you will be less likely to stack someone with a worse ace, QQ, JJ, TT ... |

Irie--
What do you estimate the Chip EV for the Hero, when an Ace or King hits the flop but misses his opponent? |
