Re: AK hits. I raise the flop and check it down.
[ QUOTE ]
OK, I think I need some help here then. I can't imagine betting on the river. If it's a bluff, what better hands fold? If it's for value, what worse hands call? Please help. [/ QUOTE ] yeh see above - betting the river would purely be a bluff. better hands that fold are weak hearts/trips scared of fourth heart.

Re: AK hits. I raise the flop and check it down.
But I have to bet a lot to fold out a 9, right? So he has to 1) have a 9 a lot and 2) fold it to my bet a lot for that to be right.
What size bet do you think is best for folding out the hearts? In my experience, they always call, but I don't know if I'm just betting the wrong amount..

Re: AK hits. I raise the flop and check it down.
By the way, I'm not trying to be too argumentative .. I'm just trying to understand. I wanted to bet during the hand, but I couldn't convince myself to do it.

Re: AK hits. I raise the flop and check it down.
Without knowing Villain's stats, I would have played it the same way.
The only other play I may have tried would have been a 1/2 pot bet or a little less to try to simulate a value bet. I must admit that I have not played rivers well in the past, though.
