Re: How not to Play AK?

Hand 2--- Gotta bet the turn, and if not bet the river Hand 3---Fold on the flop Hand 4---looks good |

Re: How not to Play AK?
Grunch.
Hand 1: maybe fold the flop. Hand 2: With BB donking along for the ride, I probably bet the turn and certainly bet the river and call one back. Hand 3: That is a giant pot. Call down and expect to lose. Hand 4: Raise the turn. Edited b/c I missed the FD on hand 1. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] |

Re: How not to Play AK?
I think:
Hand #1 - fold river Hand #2 - checking the turn is not too bad for reasons I expressed, but bet river. Hand #3 - folding flop may be correct because my outs were so suspect. JJ and I'm dead and another AK is a split. Hand #4 - Raise the turn |

If UTG+1 has A/A, J/J or a 4 you're boned, but if he has Q/Q or K/K you're pwning him.[ QUOTE ] This may be dumb but what does pwn mean? I've seen it alot. Thanks Cat |

If you're going to play back, I'd rather do it on the flop. Waiting til the turn sucks. |

Re: How not to Play AK?
Grunch.
So many hands.... Hand 1 Raise the turn. He may think you've already caught the flush and only call. If he 3-bets, call and fold with that river. Hand 2 Bet the turn. Hand 3 Either 3-bet the flop, or fold. Cold-calling two with the initial raiser behind you is too weak. I call down when the Ace hits also. Hand 4 You have to raise that turn. You have TPTK and a nut flush draw. If the donkbetter re-raises, and the other two trapped call 2, then I'd probably call down. |
