Default Re: Big Stacked AKs

OK, first of all, if I hit an ace on the turn, the last thing I am doing is betting. Maybe with a king. This is not meta-game 305, it's poker 101. If you hit an ace and you bet it after SB checks, he folds. Remember that you 3-bet, so your range is thin enough; checking the ace let's him do the betting for you. Let him try to represent it on the river with a suicide push.

Secondly, and I'm still learning this, there are times where you want to push your flush with overs and times when you want to let it go. If you look at Villain's range, it's 88+; AQs+. If you want to get cute, throw in QJs or A10s, because who the [censored] knows, but let's assume that at 100, a bad player's range is more like the former range here. One thing is for sure, he has so few chips left that your FE totally blows. And he's giving you a free card in hope that you push. So, what do you do here?
