Awkward spot with AK in RR pot

[Noam Chomsky]

Opponent seems generally solid and tag, has not done anything out of line in the hour or so that I've been at the table. I just feel sorta lost with the turn card and would love some advice.

id check and fold if he bets, i think the great majority of the time your hoping for a split at best, and if u check and call turn what do u do on river. ur paying off valuebets when he has u beat and winning nothing when he doesnt. i might continue with the hand if i had position but oop makes it a fold for me.

I'm not sure how far his call3b range is because you didn't mention or had no reads, but in general vs a TAG he's probably giving you a chance to hang yourself. Check, if he checks behind you might be ahead vs AQ. I don't see why HOV mentioned a split here, I dont see why a TAG would peel with AK vs a 3bet.

Thanks. Yeah, I check folded. Still working on three bet pots as I'm moving into more 6-max play and looking to expand my three bet range accordingly. Thanks for the confirmation.
