Default Re: Two AK Overcard Hands @ 1/2

In hand 1, I would figure we're beat on the flop to an overpair. You clearly said you have a strong hand and the villian is coming after you. If you give the Villian a range of JJ+, you have around 4 outs and just under the odds to call that if MP2 folds, just over if he calls. With how slim that is, I'd probably be folding on the turn myself although I'd say it's close.

In hand 2, preflop and flop are how I'd play it. This is probably a problem of mine, but I'd be tempted to call this one down. When he stop and goes, I can see a semibluff with an A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] or A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] type hand. When you don't raise the turn, he may assume you just have big cards and be trying to fold you (or is valuebetting). Even though his numbers say he's quite agro, I'm not sure if he would be semibluffing 1 in 4 times to warrant the river call though, so without a read, I could live with the river fold .
