AKs flops strong draw oop plus Bonus Hand

[+EV]

Villain is 32/18/1.7

I have been folding a lot of hands after the flop since I have not been collecting any pots. Villain has at least once floated me so far and bet the turn when I checked.

Second Bonus Hand
I am losing a ton of $$ with AK I guess. Looking back at my session things are not going well with it.

Villain is VPIP32/12/0.67 but I had no stats at the time. I am thinking folding to the flop raise is best.

Against a smart villain like this I check/shove turn.

I like that line but is the draw strong enough? I guess it is nice because it also gives villain a chance to check behind sometimes so that we give him lots of opportunities to make mistakes.

Eliminating the possibility of a set here (which I think is very safe to do), I think 18 outs is plenty and there's really no reason to perceive him as being strong enough to call a CRAI or even just a sizeable (yet committing) c/r. Some of your outs may be dirty if we add Ace-little into the mix but I still like the line.

first hand looks good to me, check shove is also an option on the turn since he can have worse flush draws a lot of the time.

second hand, I call turn and reeval river, he can be doing this with any ace.

You should only chk turn hand 1 if you are sure villain will bet. As played, wtf does villain have?? Crai on river looks pretty hot, and tbh I kind of want to call with AK high...i mean seriously wtf can he have?

[yellowbastard]

I like crai on flop or turn with the first hand against that particular villian.

Call the turn bet on the second hand and reevaluate on the river.
