Default AKo Money bubble just burst.

Both Players on my left and right had been very loose aggressive, to the point that I thought I was being collude against. It really had me tightened down, so I needed to 1 eithier bust or slow these guys down. Villains call here is a pretty big range as in I don't think he would fold 22 here or QJ. With this flop I was 95% that he would raise or call my continuation bet, and bet if I checked. So I did as put the pressure on him, standard ?

If you think your ahead, and that villain is going to raise you a [censored] load of the time when you cont bet, why not just lead?

Your CR basically never folds 77+ from this type of player, but it will fold AQ/AJ/KQ/KJ/QJ where as if you lead and they raise it commits them to call your stack.

I guess I have to call a push from villain ?

I see what you are saying I basically let him out easy with all hands I am ahead of or slightly behind like 22-55.
