Default Re: So I 3 bet preflop with AKo...

I'm gonna go ahead and bet this flop because;

a) The pot is fairly substantial
b) Theres a moderate chance he has a worse ace
c) He might call down with a mid pocket pair
d) He could easily have KQs KJs QJs
e) Taking it down on the flop is just fine

Regards Mack

Ok so I bet and this was hypothetical. I was trying to think of different ways of getting value from checking good hands when I'm 85% sure villian is folding. I was throwing this idea out there to see if it had any merit but from the responses it's an autobet 100%.

Bet the flop. If he's raising lightly, that's even more reason for you to get your value bets in!

I think some did and some did not know you were speaking hypothetically.

You are being spoon-fed the (likely correct) result, but are still obviously wanting.
I suggest a diligent attempt at defending what seems to be the indefensible. It will surely bring you a greater understanding of the situation. BTW, this thread has no empirical data in it to back up the claim that it is an autobet 100%. You need to do this work yourself; Make some assumptions and compare the EVs of Checking Vs. Betting. .

IF you do this, you should have a framework that is easily adjusted to fit other close scenarios.

SSHE and other standard HE books have sections on when to try to extract value. At least relook at those.
