Possibly hard spot with AK

[Grunch]

OP, if the opponent will bluff a busted draw at the end, this is good. Call.

It looks like he was drawing.
And it looks like he missed.
Readless I call here.

I call the river here against regulars/fish/whatevers at AP 50NL. The only hands that beat you are 89 and maybe K8. PM me villian's sn and maybe I can give you more info.

As played, this is never a fold with a busted flush draw on board.

OOP with a vulnerable but good hand such as AK, you should definitely be betting more pf -- more than you even said you would normally. Put it up to $7. How deep is this? Any, any read on your villain. You say things like "I don't think he is value betting a worse hand," but is that a general thought or villain specific?

pf, well, he could stay in with almost any two cards based on your raise and how deep you are -- so it's hard to put him on cards.

I didn't know Hero was 200BB's deep. For 100BB's with no read you're "playing for pot control" here?

bet more turn, c/c river IMO

[Chomp]

I raise more pf being OOP. I repop to $7. Actually, I probably go a wee bit more on flop and turn too (say $8/$19 respectively). As we're only really afriad of sets on turn we should charge draws/worse K's fully (sets will shove/rr soemwhere so we're unlikely to be up against one here IMO).

So what's villain repping on river? T7 or QT or KJ or a set. Bah. I don't think the first 2 are in his range and the only set that doesn't raise on flop/turn is JJ. So I probably call here. KJ would be ugly to see.


Edit: Just noticed 2 other things:
1. We induced a bluff on river
2. We've hit TP with AK in 3b pot

My understanding is that, as rules of thumb, in both these instances, we really have to go with our hand.
