Re: Interesting AK hand, turn decision?
I think andaquarter flopped the flush here. By check/calling the flop I think he has some type of draw or a monster. When the turn comes, he leads for an awfully small bet. The turn brought a 1-card straight draw, and if he hit it, this is an extremely weird bet. You'd think he'd want to protect his hand against the flush draw. I really see this bet as a flopped flush (probably nut) trying to squeeze value from the straight or another decent hand.
Either way, I don't think you are good here, and the king high flush draw isnt THAT strong. Also, the other player in the hand certainly does not help your cause. |

Re: Interesting AK hand, turn decision?
That flop bet is no good. It will not accomplish anything. I'd probably take a free card; if you wanted to try to take the pot now, you might have to shove it in given stack sizes.
I think you're in trouble on this turn. It seems highly unlikely you can win the hand-- your best case scenario is 9 outs to the winner and that is almost certainly not the case. |

Re: Interesting AK hand, turn decision?
I'm willing to keep this as small as possible. It may NOT be right and it may be weak/tight, something I have almost shed, but I check the flop and then only call a small turn bet. If he bets the turn semi big I'm gone. Too much scary stuff when you are about 20% to win the hand on the turn.

Re: Interesting AK hand, turn decision?
preflop
ep minraiser, i want all his money in preflop and i'm also trying to isolate by reraising to 8k. --The BB cold call-sends off a few bells, but i can't give him all the credit in the world so i'm thinkin 99-AA, AK, AQ and possibly a little wider. ep calls as expected. pot is at 24500 everyone checks to me? 2 overs w/ the second nut flush draw, i put a bet out of 5k, i want the rest of EP in there and the BB to go away- i'm not sure if i really like this bet- but it also gave me a little info as to how strong bb was if he check/ called. Turn Brick hits, and all of a sudden BB bets out at me for another large bet? i ran it through my mind and thought of the check/call---bet line that i've read about here for drawing to flushes to confuse a raiser w/ position and draw cheaper and finally decided that either that was what i was facing- to the nuts, or a big pair not to mention a flopped flush- but i figured w/ a non nut he'd be playing it a little faster. so i folded. |

Re: Interesting AK hand, turn decision?
meh results
folded the turn. BB had AK w/ the A of spades ep had QQ i would have lost the freeroll [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] i'm still not really happy w/ my flop bet- BUT it did give me an idea of how strong the BB was and allowed me to get away on the turn... |
