interesting AK hand

[tehDiceman]

obviously the 3bet PF is standard me thinks. flop i hit my TPTK and bet out but get minraised but i dont think he has AA or KK cause they 4bet PF. i figure at worst we're chopping or im ahead so i call. on the turn i let him lead out, obviously he liked his hand on the flop and i dont think the J is making his hand any better. since i let him think im done with the hand on the turn i check again so he can bluff his stack off. he may not call a push but i bet he'd bluff one. thoughts?

river makes me puke a little but i dont think that K9 is minraising the flop and i dont think that AQ would get this far in the hand unless it was AQh. KJ and KT are possible though.

i think you should have 3bet/fold that flop.
otherwise fine

interesting thought that i didnt think about. i think that my game is all jacked up right now because i've been getting owned the last two days.

Folding the flop should not be an option, IMO. I would 3-bet the flop or c/r the turn, leaning more towards 3-betting the flop.

[drsmooth]

Why fold flop? Other than a set of 6/7 what could he have based on pre flop action to think of folding? I would 3-bet flop and try and get in either there or on the turn.

[Spurious]

i said that i would 3bet and fold to a 4bet on the flop

[drsmooth]

Fair enough. I don't know if I would fold to a 4bet, because I don't think we're beat that often and we won't have much left after 3betting anyway.
