Don't show results.

Any reads here, or are we just flying blind?

Tenbob once told me that without reads, stacking with TPTK is a bad idea.
I don't think K/Q or K/J is calling you down there too often.

Yeah, this board has a flush draw, but other than that, its not particularly drawy (which is the main thing we hope to value town with AK by raising the flop). And its got 2 low cards, and a limp/caller, so sets are certainly in his range. Plus flop min-raises from a weak/passive are pretty much a giant "I HAVE THE NUTS" sign. I think I call the min-raise, but check/fold to a large turn bet.

Was tenbob talking about FR or 6max? I think it makes a difference.

I talked to inscore about this hand right after it happened. I would have liked to see a little bit bigger raise preflop. The flush didn't fill at the turn when he got it all in, but at the flop I think both of them getting it in is somewhat standard.

I think this is entirely read dependant, and I stack TPTK based on villain's stats. Against a 60/2/2.5 fish, I'm so happy getting it in its uncanny. However, against a guy with stats of like 20/15/1.5, I just fold to a flop raise. The drawyness of the flop affects things as well, as does the line that villain takes against me.

Since we don't have reads here, and the villain is taking the typical "I has the nuts" line, I don't mind folding. Min-raises, especially from loose/passives are just oh-so-bad. Plus the fact that this is a K instead of an ace makes things different, since usually there are more weak aces in their range than weak kings.
