Overplayed AK Heads Up?
Reads: villain is is 18/13 over 50 hands, but this was a fairly loose table and was playing pretty TAG while I was at the table. Also one BB poster in MP3.
Not sure if I like my line here, plus I am on a nice 100BB downswing after I just moved up in levels, so I dont know if I am just applying lower level thinking to this hand... This is my first hand posting, so if I miss something feel free to flame away as well.

[/ QUOTE ] The turn raise is Fancy Play Syndrome, unless you have a solid read that this guy has an ace high and will fold it. Call down. He did cap preflop, so if he is a TAG then at best we are chopping this pot. 50 hands is a tiny sample size, though. |

Re: Overplayed AK Heads Up?
I think ur usually behind when someone UTG raises and u isolate with AK and dont connect with the flop. Which is why i dont like the turn raise that much. Trying not to be results oriented though, u did buy urself a free showdown by the raise.
u got to the showdown for the same price as calling down and u gave villian a chance to release on the turn which would nt have come if u just called down. |

Re: Overplayed AK Heads Up?
I think I had played 3 out of ~40 hands at this point all in the blinds, so he knew if I raised I probably had something.
If I was 3-bet into on the turn this would have been an easy fold though. One other question, if that turn is a second spade would I fold/call/raise the turn? Thanks to everyone for the input. |

Re: Overplayed AK Heads Up?
I don't like the turn raise at all.
If he has a normal TAG then his cap range preflop is gonna be AA, KK, QQ, AK and maybe JJ b/c HU. You are not folding any of these except maybe AK and if you do not fold then you are chopping at best. I think my line would be call, call, fold. Do you really think he bets AK here on the river? I'm c/c this myself so I think with my line you can fold to the river bet or chck behind and split (you can maybe bet this river, but I don't think he is folding AK here). |

Re: Overplayed AK Heads Up?
If the turn is a spade then a raise is not that bad of a move, but I still think I'm still just calling the turn. You still are not folding enough hands and he will still bet into you if a spade hits on the river so you can raise him then and he will still call wit hthe same range of hands but this time you win [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
