<font color="green">I think this is a check here as it gives villian a chance to bet missed fd and there is no real value in betting...overall, how is my line?? </font>

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

River check is a little tricky for my taste, but it's not like you're going to bet/fold the ten of clubs in a pot like this. I'd be much more concerned if he'd shown aggression on any other street, but you're executing a plan here, and if he turns over KJo, then he's as bad as you said.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

Why dont you make a bigger cbet? There are many draws possible and you have 2 enemies.
I would not bet the River like you. I think, only better hands would call. I would check/call and hope that he misses his flushdraw, like you hope.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

I like a bet of about $3.00 on the flop. I think the Check is fine on the river, and I agree it is likely that he has a missed flush draw here as well. He could have KJ, but I don't think I would lay this hand down either.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

Its pretty standard I play it the same all the time. The scarier the board is, the more polarized villain's range gets, the higher are villains tendencies to bluff and the more oftne you should call light.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

River check is fine but you absolutely must call

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

If this was later in the session after watching the villian try to bluff AK uninproved into trips for 1/2 and 3/4 stacks i would have snap called this, but as it was i hesitated and called

Villian turned over J10o, despite winning the pot i just wanted to see if the hand was played fine and to make sure i wasn't just being results orriented.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

In retrospect, dont forget to weight JT heavily in villains range no matter the action [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

$2.5-$2.75 on the flop. Build a bigger pot. We want it all in by river.

If there is a decent chance he bets turn if checked to, then check/raise turn nice and big.

River c/c looks fine. Bet/fold looks ok too. C/f is not an option.

Re: 25nl AK line check
 

I probably pot the flop and turn.
If you're going to check the river to let them bet missed FD then you have to call no mather what
