AK Unknown villian. 100NL
Unknown villian. This seems like a basic spot but I am really confused without any reads... I'm not sure what the standard line is at this level.

Re: AK Unknown villian. 100NL
Pretty sure folding is the last thing you want to do here versus an unknown.
I think I sometimes (probably not all that often) 3-bet the flop, but as played you should checkraise allin on the turn I think and be up againist AK/AQ/AJ a lot of the time but even AT sometimes... if he's playing any A3/A6 PF he might very well be playing something like A8+ this strongly now with the intent to check the river. |

Re: AK Unknown villian. 100NL
definately need to throw a raise in there somewhere, and be happy to get it all in

Re: AK Unknown villian. 100NL
why do you call the turn and fold the river? it makes no sense

But I think the villain pushes AQ on the river as well, plus possibly some lower aces, I still think the river should be called as played. |

Against an unknown, I don't really want to fold the flop here because I think I could be ahead quite often... and it just seems really weak. But at the same time, he either has Ax/Air or I am toast. If I raise now, I don't think I get any action from a worse hand. I probably should have c/r the turn, but I had a feeling I was behind and didn't trust it enough to fold. I'm pretty sure the river is a fold as played. I don't think many players raise the flop then fire 3 barrels on a hand I beat often enough.... but I'm really not happy with my line... |
