I am not sure that I agree that he won the minimum. For one he got someone over calling along until the river which adds extra bets. Also raising the flop may send the aggressor running for cover with missed overs.

The turn was not a good card to raise since it probably helps no one.

Raising the River is great because he has totally disguised the strength of his hand and he gets max value from AK. However raising the turn might be better still since any PP is going to call you down.

I don't know. I don't think hero extracts much more by playing this quickly and to me a slow play is in order since his hand is practically unbeatable. Coupled with an aggressive villain this is ok in my opinion.

However if someone could elaborate on a strategy to extract more I would be interested.
