AK 3/6 hu

[snugglez88]

ok... a little background. I'm battling my opponent across 3 tables and he is BAAD. Basically he just overplays his hands, plays too hard in 3b pots, and is easy to manipulate. He gets frustrated pretty easily I think. He makes oversized raises here with a bluff/ pair. There is a small percentage my ace high is good, and 95% of the time an ace or king is an out for me. There is no way he is folding the river here unless he has air.

Given your read, it looks like you have to shove turn.

[mythrilfox]

wouldn't his read indicate shoving turn is awful? i think you played this fine.

[GoldenIP]

If this guy doesn't have a fold button I think you played it fine but I wouldn't wholly disagree with a turn shove. In fact, I'd try my luck and perhaps check on the flop to him setting up a significant c/r. If he checks behind ... well you've got yourself a free card.

i think the turn bet is fine but u gotta fold to the c/r. u don't have odds to draw to the flush and ur overcards are almost never good. something like slightly better than ~2:1 immediate and ~1.5:1 implied. the clean flush outs are more than 4:1 to come in. if this is a guy who habitually c/r folds to push on the turn with small pairs or gets tricky with straight draws or total air it's a decent place to shove.
