How do you play AK on the flop?
I don't know how to play AK on the flop when it misses ($10+1) Normally, I bet just under a pot-sized bet, but this hand I went all due to the large pot. What do you experts do?

1/2-2/3 is my standard continuation bet. Pushing here is bad IMO.

Re: How do you play AK on the flop?
Totally differnt on the turn. Depends what you have, and could improve to. You may not have a made hand but you could improve to something better so in that case I would fire another shot around the same..1/2-2/3.
But if I stone missed and am sitting with nothing then yes its a check/fold. |

It's not a very good idea to overbet like that there.

Re: How do you play AK on the flop?
the main problem with the continuation bet on the flop, not just the overbet, is that you have a whole bunch of opponents, not just 1 or 2. the fewer opponents, the more likely they all fold on the flop and you don't have to continue on with your ace high.

you don't have to continue on with your ace high [/ QUOTE ] You only have A high, thereīs three villains and itīs level 1. A push is not recommended. |

Re: How do you play AK on the flop?
lol, to think it should come to this.... - but I like it. 260 in the pot is worth it in my opinion, you should fold out anything less than QJ or so, including the draws.
I guess you could just bet 175 also (and call a push), I'm not sure if this induces more calls or not, there is probably not a big difference. The alternative line I see is to bet 100 (and fold to a raise), I think you'll take down the pot enough for this to be better than checking. |
