I'd raise that flop so as not to let AK draw.

Easier with reads.

I would raise on the flop and fold to a shove. TT-JJ is a likely range. This is a pretty small range, but you can also include big unpaired hands if villan is more aggressive than usual.

I'm surprised at his line on the turn though. It really looks like he had AK.

WP, what do you do if villain fires 17~~ on turn?

Raise the flop to like 22. If he raises, fold to shove. If he calls and donks the turn, shove. If he checks, bet.

As played, when he checks, I'd play it like you did.

Can we really fold to a flopshove, you leave 18$ behind and your getting over 3:1? Feels to me that making it 22 at flop commits us.

oh, nvm. I'd probably call this flop, then play it as you did.
