Default Re: River bet - AK unimproved

These posts remind me of something someone here (don't remember who) once said, that seemed very important. I'll try to paraphrase, without losing the essence of the point.

Basically, the idea is that, when we underplay our hands, we certainly disguise the strength of our hand, and it's easy to see how that can pay off. But by disguising our hand, we also run the risk of tricking ourselves. We've given out false info and that can make it harder to read our opponents' reactions.

Here's one more thing to mull over. In the hand in question where we have AK, when do want our opponent to fold, if at all? Frankly, I have not figured out the answer to this question, and I think it might be significant to deciding the optimal play.
