Amusing AKs hand

[El Ishmael]

LOL. Caught!

Betting is bankroll suicide. Even if UTG cooperates and raises, there are a large number of draws out there for the other players to have, and I don't expect to get heads up with the whole family involved.

c/c no fold equity nice draw.

yaar, check/call. keep 'em in if it hits.

The turn is pretty easy after you see how the flop went down. Betting as a semi-bluff is bad as I almost certainly won't take it down, I'd be unhappy if LAGgy raised me, and it's basically a stupid thing to do in a multiway pot.

I suck at this part. I would just bet out. C/R looks nice, but I am not sure if anyone is going to bet for us.

check-raise , get more players trapped in - even can reraise someone who thinks his trips 9 are good.

I never lead out here - check:

1. you don't have the best hand 99% of the time
2. there's 4 others on a draw-heavy board - you're not folding everyone
3. you don't want to pay two bets to see the turn (if it's two coming back you're probably folding, but have to call if you bet and get raised)

The key is that UTG is the most likely guy to raise and we may have a better hand than him.
We might not get everyone to fold, but we could very well fold hands we want to fold. If 96 coldcalls it's not a big deal, but if A7 folds because they're facing 2 cold that's a huge plus for us.

I don't have that much faith in UTG raising our flop bet anywhere near often enough to make this play - but it's an interesting view

I agreed with what previous posters had said, what's to be confused about?

The whole point of grunching is to not read other replies before posting.
