Default Re: FTP $1 45PP MTT S&G: AK OFFSUIT NEARING FINAL TABLE

You should avoid other big stacks with marginal hands. Here you have a good hand and you should value bet. He is likely calling down and not raising with a K, middle kicker. It sounds like he made two pair and he likely would have raised when he made the two pair, thats when you make a decision. You were lucky to get called by a hand you had dominated after such an overbet and unlucky to lose to the suckout. You want to allow your opponents to make mistakes, by pushing the flop you greatly decrease the odds of getting a worse hand to call and you don't get any better hands to fold. Just bet for value. Re-evaluate when raised.
