villain is unknown. is my line okay? if not, should i get it in on the turn or call/fold, call/call?

why c/f after you hit your hand?

i usually b/c 4. mainly because were pot committed at that point

[youngmachetes]

because i didn't feel like my TP2K was good in that spot? i don't know. i found it really unlikely that he was floating me, and if he was, AK makes up a lot of his floating range. we had never played a 3bet pot together, so i had trouble giving him a wide range here. i timed down a lot during the hand, and was very close to c/shoving.

If you want to check/fold. Do it on the flop. WHat did you put him on??

[youngmachetes]

another issue i had was that his line didn't look like TT-KK to me. most people just jam the flop w/ those hands, and i don't know why he'd bet an ace turn with them. during the hand, i felt like his turn range was something like sets, AK, potentially some floated worse aces, A9 and maybe something like Axdd, but he wasn't noticeably loose/awful, so i didn't think he was calling 3bets that light.


edit: he prob. 4bets QQ/KK, and if i'm going broke here i like calling down, not bet/calling.

[youngmachetes]

not to flood my own thread with my retarded posts, but i didn't notice during the hand (or when i posted this) that he opened from the button. i thought it was the CO, although it's not a huge difference.
