NL5 AKo

So here's a very awkward spot I found myself in. Getting a very good price to call on flop but I still think it's pretty bad since he could already have some made hands or a flush draw which kills a ton of my outs.
What do you guys think? Maybe I shouldn't even cbet this board, thought about that upon review.

The dude is a pretty crazy reg. Stats don't mean much here but he d.oesn't fold a lot to 3bets is the most important one I guess, about 40% F3bet

I'd prefer a check back on this flop. It's a very coordinated board that will connect in at least a minor way with most of a 3bet calling range so I wouldn't expect to have much fold equity.

When he minraises I think you have to call just based on odds if we give him a range that includes a bunch of monsters and some draws as well. The turn and river will likely be difficult to play though since like you mentioned there are a lot of tainted outs.

Yeh we are basically betting into a flop that hits our opponents range so this is a clear check back and hope to improve. Not even a bad thing to just check back and fold any brick turns or just take a free river card.

It's a check on this flop for me and hope to hit a nice red J, otherwise it's check down and win about once a week or check/fold to a bet on the turn. Smile
No need to fight too hard for this one imo.

I agree with the analysis above, checking back seems correct here. In general I'd check/call one street and reevaluate turn. That line could get us into some tough spots though.

Notice its a cold call @ bb as well. that board smashes his Cold Calling range. I think the only AK you can cbet is the AK of spades.
Your cbet is only possibly bluffing out 99 maybe JJ but thats about it.

Check it back as said, and vs the min raise it's a pot odds call even if he has some made hand's

Risk/risk+reward will give you pot odds and you can assign him a range in stove and see how ak fares. Even if it's trivial could be good to spark some thoughts how to assess hands

He called the 3-bet out of position without knowing what MP was going to do. This board seems to hit his set.
Bluffing OOP becomes too expensive if he didn't hit it.

Hi scraper definitely is check back in flop, range of the villain impact very good here, turn can be good card for us, and i am thinking call in whatever turn one barrel

I like a bet if he has PP's in his range. We should call flop for the odds we're getting

Could have made the 3bet 0.60 just to round the numbers off a bit! Cheeky
