Default Re: AK for top two (NL600)

Raised2Win stated most of my thoughts as playing the hand...

of course if i know he will c/r with A6 and A4 i can bet/call the turn and if i know he will not i can bet/fold. unfortunately i had pretty much no idea if he would or not. i ended up checking behind turn figuring i can then at least get some value from a king on the river most likely.

River: ($183) 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $90</font>, Hero ?

Raise or call?

I'd call. I'd hate to get re-raised if I raise at the river since folding top 2-pair isn't a good option. Looks like villain is making a blocking bet or a trappy value bet. If it's a weak blocker, then he folds if you raise. But if he is stronger than 2-pair, then he'll reraise or push if you raise and you'll probably have a hard time justifying a fold with top 2-pair.
