Villain is 34/9/2 ~75 w/att. to steal 0.00
Anyone c/f the flop here vs. his opening range? Fold river standard or pot too big? He showed his hand btw so Ill post it later. Thanks, these AK 3bet pots are bugging me.

For 1/4 pot, I call all day here to chop/catch a bluff. His line is so strange on this board. If he is floating on flop, he bets turn, and if he has overpair, he bets Turn. Don't see how the river gives him a hand he doesn't bet on Turn.

Your line is standard for most AK that don't improve, but on this board with villain's line I can't find a fold.

What is BTN actual stack size? I assume it is not actually $0.00.

You have to call this. I would not check/fold the flop, for this hand itself and so he doesn't expect to run over you everytime you appear to protect your blinds which to him is quite possibly what's happening here. I'd play it as played unless one of his stats or session factors allow me to double barrel and fold him out of this potential float. Otherwise, yes, definately call this river.

this is a really strange line for him to take. It sorta makes sense if he has something like 99, but otherwise, why does he check this turn with an overpair?
I really don't think he's bluffing here, I don't call this

I agree with unknown soldier. What are you beating by the time you get to this river? I dont mind the c-bet in the chance he has some whiffed overs, but c/f cant be bad either. The guy is only raising 9% of his hands pf, once he calls the 3 bet pf its down to AK, maybe AQ and strong pairs.

What? "You have to call this."? No, we have ace high.

You can get away with leading the flop smaller, in the region of 9-9.5, and everything else seems standard.

agreed. fold river. this looks like 99-JJ. villain checks turn because he is scared of a bigger pair
