Default 200nl - AK turns top two pair, but... ugh.

Poker Stars - No Limit Hold'em Cash Game - $1/$2 Blinds - 6 Players - (LegoPoker HH Converter)

SB: $198.05
BB: $208.00
UTG: $192.85
<font color="black">Hero (MP): $200.00</font>
CO: $40.60
BTN: $224.20

<font color="black">Preflop:</font> Hero is dealt K A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (6 Players)
UTG folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $7.00</font>, 2 folds, SB calls $6.00, BB folds

<font color="black">Flop:</font> ($16) K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 9 6 (2 Players)
SB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $12.00</font>, SB calls $12.00

<font color="black">Turn:</font> ($40) A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
SB checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $28.00</font>, <font color="red">SB raises to $68.00</font>, Hero calls $40.00

<font color="black">River:</font> ($176) 7 (2 Players)
<font color="red">SB bets all-in for $111.05</font>

Villain is 27/8/.9, I've been playing around 16/14. His raise on the turn looks very strong and he's a passive player, so I wasn't feeling too well when he shoved the river. There's also really no busted draws he could have. Wtf do I do here? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

You flat called the turn so he would shove the river. Now call. Or, shove turn yourself.

His line looks like a flopped set, but most passive fish would valuebet less on the river fearing you'll fold if they push.

If you have less than 200 hands on him and no other reads, I'd probably call the river (and expecting to be behind most of the time) as the AF isn't accurate yet.

Shoving the turn is gross. If he's behind, we don't want to scare him off.

He has a worse aces up often enough for this to be a call. I think you played it perfectly assuming you called the river

I stoved what I thought was pretty much the worst case and it's about breakeven. If he has some combos of A9o or plays A6s like this your equity goes way up.

Best case scenario, you're chopping here. If you call turn, you probably have to call river too. I would pay this off the first time and note how he plays sets. If you think he's got it, fold the turn.
