Pot control gone bad

[yad]

tufat,
don't you think villain plays weaker aces this way? It's kinda stupid, true, but I see it all the time nonetheless.

So I wouldn't fold this. The whole point of checking this flop is to call this bet.

No need to be lost IMHO. You are only beat, realistically, by 77 and 44 with AA being an outside possibility. A7 would suck but with some opponents is a possibility. That flop is perfect for AK and you should bet for value every time in the hope that a weaker kicker or weaker hand makes a mistake in getting involved.

Flop check is fine since the board is really dry - I still bet it a lot though
Turn call is fine
River is a fold - looks like a set/2pair

I don't think 20/8 open limps UTG with ace-rag. There is no valuebetting to speak of. I like the flop check. Based on my experience, the river is a fold. UTG had a set.

Is this determined because he checks and leads for PSB on turn and river?
