Default Re: AKs - Standard?

I'm scared. Other than the turn, he's not slowing down. At this point I've got him on AKo or AK,AQ,AJspades. I probably would have checked behind on the river. There is no way for me to think I'm ahead 50% of the time (for this bet to be right).

I'm sure he'd be trying to jam every street if he had AK [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

I would also expect a cap preflop fromg a TAG, which is one of the weirder things about this hand.

The villian didn't really play this hand all that great. His flop play is pretty abysmal imo. His river play is probably okay since he underplayed his hand, but he has to be really careful making that move against a TAG who very well could be freerolling him (or have AA).

do you think villian should have check called the flop and check raised the turn?

Bet with the intention of 3-betting. Check/calling the flop and check/raising the turn is just about the worst line possible since we could check behind against a thinking TAG. Against someone who we don't think is capable of check/calling Ax on the flop then it would be an okay line.

agreed. however, wouldn't we just like to cap preflop to begin with?

Only mistake I see is he missed a cap preflop.

that's because this time you had AK too. his play in this hand only works well when you hold a strong ace (it is pointless when you have AK, as you just split the pot). so say you 3-bet him with KK-99, would you like villain's play?

Yes. Find a spot on the turn or river for villain to squeeze another bet out of me, keeping in mind if he 3bets the turn I call down immediately. He got 4 bets in on the big bet streets. His play is fine here. I was asking about mine but it seems the group likes that as well.

yes, now rate his play based on your likely range of hands.

he's begging you to fold all the hands he crushes and to own him with AA/KK.
