50NL AK in 3bet pot?

A reraise with AK hand again, this HH, kind of exemplifies why I do not 3bet PF with AK (Call me a wuss/whatever) especially OOP, ......... considering you did, this is standard I guess

not rr a,k in the bb vs a button raise is pretty gross imo. If you don't rr it then in most pots you're not going to hit the flop, button will c'bet, and you'll end up folding the best hand very often. By rr we can win the pot preflop, on the flop with a c'bet, or by actually connecting and making a hand.


OP, hand is well played imo.

I dunno, maybe I am wrong? In my experience few times players fold to the reraise unless its like a $1.50 raise and its raised to $6-$7.

Them calling tells you nothing, 66% of the time you wont hit and could be crushed.

whatever edge I give up PF, (To me) is gained when an A or K hits and you crush your opponents post-flop *shrugs*

How much equity/$$ do I really give up by NOT reraising PF with AK? I doubt its much

i dunno, you really think they dont fold most of the time? in my experience, a 3 bet takes down a lot of pots before we see a flop.. almost like free money

and yea.. its a little cautious to not 3bet.. but if you play accordingly post flop i guess its ok



i like building pots though.. i also like not going to the show down too often

its VERY opponent dependent, but a 3bet ak i think, ultimately, is the best way, but honestly if your comfortable enough postflop it shouldn't matter too much..
its all style baby!

I may have to revisit this strategy, and I am not too shabby Post flop [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Standard, although personally I occasionally c/r flop trying to get a free card on the turn.
I find leading flop and c/f'ing turn really weak play and way too exploitable unless you sometimes c/c the turn and lead the river with strong hands. Mixing up your play on spots like this is really useful IMO.

Also about 3-betting AK pf - usually in lower limits 3-betting and leading the flop takes the pot down unless you're up against a premium PP so I would consider it highly +EV

seriously, I have had this discussion with RobertJordan, I will revisit this
