AKo on the button - raising war (micro)

[HenningSke]

No real reads, just a standard loose micro-table. Where could I have played better and how?

I 3 bet the flop. If you want to wait until the turn that's alright too, you're got to get at least one more bet in one either of these streets. The K on the turn makes this an easy pop regardless.

I 3 bet the flop here. I rarely slowplay TPTK. If you don't 3 bet the flop you have to raise the turn.

Your turn play is the interesting street as all other streets are pretty straight forward/well played.

Your turn call is correct only if:

(1) villain will only cap preflop with AQs or better.

(2) villain cant have QQ on the turn or if he does he's folding to a raise.

There doesnt seem to be enough information on the villain in your OP to decide whats best on the turn, but I have had a decent amount of experience watching the .02/.04 games on PS from teaching my girlfriend how to play and these games seem pretty damn crazy/wild. If villain turned over A7o in the end it wouldnt shock me. So based on my limited exposure to these games I think you should still pop the turn.

I estimated his range by this point at AA-KK-AQ, with a tiny chance at QQ. Perhaps I do give these micro-players too much credit sometimes. He did turn out to be holding KK however.
