I think you played it fine.

[Hobo McCracken]

without reading the other repleies...

pre: UTG with AK I like to raise to at least 5x the BB. You got way too many seeing the flop with you. I too play 6-max.

flop: looks good.. could make a PSB, but I don't mind it. Not a bad board for AK unless someone flopped a set.

turn: looks like a good value bet...

river: No good. Perfect time for a blocking bet in my opinion. Make a nice $10 bet and fold to a raise. a $21 bet is going to be called by only things that beat you, except maybe a smaller A... But you MUST fold if your block bet is even min-raise. Sure you're getting good odds, but you're behind here and it will cost you bets in the long run.

Also. do not post the results, It'll taint your feedback.

This is a strategy forum, not OOT. At least offer some sort of advice with your along with your unfunny remarks.

OP - Slow down on the river. 1/2 to 3/4 pot is fine. I'd fold when a passive player 'wakes up' on the river, but I think you usually see a worse A calling you down here.
