Any changes? The check on the flop was because there were no draws to be scared of, and I can limit the pot if im against AK

Flop - I usually bet

Turn - After checking flop this is standard

River - Value bet here yo

I think you have 2 streets of value with this hand. It is up to you which 2 streets you bet

I agree...you gotta bet the flop, maybe check turn for control, then value bet river if it looks good.

i think you could have gotten more value by betting flop and c/c turn and bet river to a check behind. IMO AK can 4 bet pf a lot and given SB's line postflop i dont think hes ahead very often

[Waingro]

Rr more pf. After you check the flop, which is fine of you want value from JJ-KK, bet more on the turn and bet the river.
