I don't think you can fold this without a read.

the pot is too big to fold now, either bet less on the flop or be prepaired to go all the way with this... if u have a hard time knowign what to do here, i suggest keepign the pot smaller.

[vanHelsing]

TPTK is the nutz on this board in a rr pot. ez call!

[Sir Winalot]

I don't think I could fold this with villains postflop aggression.

[Marshall28]

lol, like, you probably are beat when he open shoves turn, but u cant fold ak on this board. theres just no way.

[Ryanb9]

if he has a better hand its A8 'n u laugh /images/graemlins/smile.gif

It's difficult to recognize that in the heat of the session, but in hindsight, your bet on the flop sucks. As we can see, when Villain calls he is left with a stack where you have to call his shove no matter what card appears. But there are lots of scare cards left on the flop. I guess it's more than 1/2 of the remaining deck we don't like here.
So I think the correct way to play that hand is to shove the flop. To many players like to call with their draws now giving you a favorable all-in showdown.

ummm, open shoving sucks.

you are right though about the flop bet, it rarely gets called by a hand ak is ahead of, and it gets called and shoved on by all hands that are ahead.

usually i check this flop and try to get it all in on the turn or river.

Advice sucks.

Checking is terrible on a flop where we don't want to see 1/2 of the cards left on the deck. Shoving the turn when Villain could see a free card on that draw heavy board is really the worst possible move you can do here!

It's a reraised pot. There aren't THAT many scare cards.

ummmm, the board is A9T, villains most liekely holding is jj-kk because its a reraised pot.... there are only 2 cards in the deck that really help him if this is the case, i think its worth the extra value to check that you give up when you have to stack off to villain catching his miracle card. so whatever.

[kabouter]

What is his range here?

I'm not sure if a guy with these stats would even reraise with KK, but a call with TT could have been possible.
Still it seems more likely you are up against another AK.
If he has TT or very unlikely AA, then so be it.

[Freelancer]

please dont fold...

[rocco1999]

It looks like he is drawing and wants to puts you off your hand with his AI bet.
