I don't see anything wrong with that.

Not a huge fan of betting out, no real folding equity, and most of our outs are spliting. Check and see is a better play.

We very, very often have the best hand. Everything up to the river call is a must.

Are you kidding? You like betting into 4 people? What do you do to a raise?

I call with my flagrant 6 outer.

This is a really easy flop bet.

I bet the river, fold to a raise.

Normally I dont like betting AK UI into a large field, but in a 10/20 6-max game, I think betting out is a good line because of the propensity for most people to raise pairs preflop. So I think leading AK is okay here. I think another acceptable line is to check-raise a late position bettor if you have any confidence that the button or CO will bet the hand if checked to.

Is there a difference here between 10/20 and 5/10? At 5/10, I'd bet the flop, but I wouldn't bet that turn or river. Is this wrong?
