Default AK calldown

Villain is 45/17/2 after about 80 hands. No other reads. I honestly get c/red or raised on a paired board about 95% of the time. They cant flop trips every time can they? Should I bet checking the turn here more often?

Absolute Poker
Limit Holdem Ring game
Limit: $2/$4
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (6.5SB, 3 players)
BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, BB folds, UTG calls.

Turn: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (4.25BB, 2 players)
UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises</font>, Hero calls.

River: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (8.25BB, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets</font>, Hero calls.

Results:
Final pot: 10.25BB

This is precisely the spot to use the turn value check, though if the guy is really bluffy, your line doesn't totally suck. The only thing that sucks would be folding anywhere.

semi-bluffing (perhaps with the best hand) against a guy that could easiy check raise you with air is probably a bad idea ... unless you can fold

if you want to go to showdown I much prefer a check and call

You guys don't think there is value in betting and calling down?

if you bet the turn, you bet with the intention of calling down.

If you don't know what to do when he c/r's i check behind and call any river bet.
