Hummm....won a 80BB pot with AK unimproved yesterday. This hand kinda freaked me out, I wish I was on tilt. Hopefully I won't feel like this is a good idea in the future.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.25 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

UTG ($37.30)
MP ($34.40)
CO ($25)
Button ($63.20)
SB ($31.95)
Hero ($25)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
1 fold, MP calls $0.25, 2 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $1.5, MP calls $1.25, SB folds.

Flop: ($3.25) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets $2.5, MP calls $2.50.

Turn: ($8.25) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero bets $5, MP calls $5.

 This bet is too small, just noticed! 

River: ($18.25) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Hero checks, MP bets $12.75, Hero raises to $16, MP folds.

I can't put him on anything but air. If he bet a medium/small pocket pair, he'd either value bluff/push, or bet half pot hoping for a call from AK (me!). If he had a big pair he'd raise preflop, or raise the flop/turn. That awkward bet on a bad card for 99% of my holdings doesn't make any sense. Bet>check raise here obviously, but I was planning on giving up.

Final Pot: $47

and finally, I got one! ROYAL FLUSH! (Probably 65k hands liftetime)
