how would you play AK? If the flop is A, 9, 3. Turn Q. River J. I am in the starting position, 1 opponent on the button checks all my beta in 60-80% of the bank.

very often I lose big banks in this situation, think this is bad luck, or play passively?

If it is after the flop Chica bet that means he has A high pocket pair or I would shoal till the end depends more what suits there was a flush draw for example.

Well thats a nice wet board you got there but you got some blockers (you hold the king) and depending on the pre flop action you can at least estimate your opponents holding. OFC there are some disguised hands such as sets, two pair etc, but the key is to look for a change of behaviour in your opponent. If you lead in with a bet and always get called and then reraised on river, that is suspicious and you know you are probably beat. Just dont worry, poker is a game of PATIENCE and you dont have to win every hand and sometimes its good to learn to muck the top pair top kicker if you have the feeling that you are beat.


Good luck :)

You can bet the flop then bet again after that. If he calls and calls be careful he has something

AK is a bit an overrated hand , raise / re-raise preflop if you face a 3-bet now it's a tough decision because you're certainly facing a stronger hand the best situation you will be fliping in an all-in situation

With less than 1 SPR I guess you can bet all in for value, but it sort of depends on the rest of the action.

AK is not a drawing hand. Why even ask what to do on a flop where you got TPTK?

It depends on the game mode, position, blinds, players at the table, and the favorite color of the opponent's shirt (this is a joke). But playing it very aggressive is the best you can do.

In this situation, you need to raise. You want to say that here fold is the best option.

If your opponent behaves this way, then I would be more careful, since he has the likelihood of AK or AJ

And maybe the enemy has 99 or 33.

what is quite likely in this game
