I would C/R the flop and calldown a 3 bet. Your turn lead is bad.

On the river he can hold AQ/AJ equally combo wise. He would have to be a tard to play AK like this and there are AA/QQ/JJ to worry about so I'd check/call the river.

1. Even 6 handed, I don't like bringing QJo for a raise. This hand is easily dominated and needs a special board to really make pay-dirt. I would even just call with QJs. You want to see the flop cheaply.
2. I think you played the rest of the hand perfectly. I put button on AQ.

1) PF is a standard raise, and I'd rather fold than limp with it.
2) Is that because hero showed that villain just called his river raise?

Throwing away QJo is too weak and you dont want to limp 6 handed too often so a raise is good, after the three bet on the flop I think your behind to a lot or different hands, I dont like the turn lead, especially after the flop cap, I do like the river c/r

I like the flop but agree with you on the turn and river. I think you made a mistake on the combos though.

AJ 3
AQ 6
AA 3
QQ 1
JJ 0

I also agree that AK would be overplayed but I also think that there is some possibility that villain could have 3bet pf with KTs

[sharpie]

Oops Ricks, thanks for clearing that up. I agree KTs needs to be considered but very discounted IMO.

I want to get 4 flop bets into this pot whenever possible. You are being 3bet by top pair, especially + a gutshot and/or FD, nearly every time. I could see going either way (bet/call, check/call) on the turn.

6-handed, a lot of people are going to play AK this way, especially if he thinks the OP is LAG.

[Fat Nicky]

i'd just check/call the turn. button is showing a lot of strength and we are behind more hands than we are ahead of here. Sure, AK is within his range, but I don't think too many players will cap with just TPTK on a board with 3 broadways. He has 2 pair or better most of the time here, IMO.

I'd bet out the river and call a raise.

[alleatoryage]

The turn bet was bad, but luckily the river bailed you out nicely. I like the river c/r.
