I mean normally the answer is OBV but this is an unraised pot vs. a UTG limper

SB (t1270)
Hero (t1440)

Preflop: Hero is in BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG calls t50, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB folds, Hero checks

Flop: (t125) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)

Is checking AK the cool thing to do these days? Yes, go broke & take a note.

I don't really understand the flop bet. I would def raise PF if I'm going to play it this way.

this is true
if your going to slowplay the AK, why are you then betting out on the flop
a check here would make more sense

i thought a check out of the blinds with AK is incredibly standard?

I really don't want to discuss preflop.
As played get it in. Not that many two pair combos and tons of combodraws.

TruFloridaGator · #8 04-05-2007, 11:52 PM

We should be discussing pf, because it's horrible for a ton of reasons. No it should be standard to check.

I think PF is fine. your OOP w/ ak keep the pot small unless you flop big. I would also probably limp it sometimes, sometimes come in for a raise. Check fold flop if unimproved, its early and you want to keep the pot small, until you hit. IMO.
