Default Re: ak hits A high flop and gets minraised

I don't understand everyone long term plan.

We call and the pot is now $13.50.

The next bet is at least $7 (if we lead 1/2 potish) and as much as $13 depending on whether people make PSBs or not.

Are we really calling hoping the next two streets are checked down?

If the next 2 streets have betting, its more then likely our whole stack is in there.

So, aren't we only moving on with this hand if we think we're ahead here most often then not?

monkeymaps? What if villain made a decent raise instead?

We're OOP and both reraising or leading the turn are going to commit us and cost us more when we're behind. I think we're not ahead very often... Calling will definately have villain bet this turn with about any hand, so what's there to reevaluate?
Top pair schmop pair. Call me a nit, but I need a read to think someone is reraising this with a weak ace.

OP, I like $1.50 pre, and lead that flop bigger; then, when the button raises both your strong lead and BB's call of it, you can happily consider folding, especially if you preceive him as 'tight' (and evidently not aggressive, given pf.)

The problem with your bet-sizing (pf and post) is that it muddies the waters OOP, and it's much harder to determine (without extensive history) if villains are drawing, peeling with a mid pp, raising light-ish, how to proceed forward on the turn given your unwillingness to muck under such nebulous flop circumstances, etc.
