What do u do? Call or fold?

Raise preflop, you have a premium hand.

As played pretty easy fold on the flop

Why are you limping preflop?

Postflop is just a fold as played; your line makes no sense whatsoever. Raise preflop, cbet the flop, take it from there.

this+ dont post hand in two places including the results in one of them cause results mess up the analysis(not really in this case since u have to fold turn)

i usally do raise pre-flop with premium hands. but thought i'd take a different step and i got lucky hitting a royal. VERY LUCKY. =P

Ive been told this by numerous people i know who grind online. They love limping AK, i find myself unless youve been at the table for quite some time and know the player you will not know where you are in the hand at any stage. That flop, is very dangerous too you, turn might give you outs but your still drawing for your whole stack. I wish i could draw to the river and hit royal flushes but the fact is it RARELY happens. My thoughts, raise find out where you are on that flop and play from there. Nice catch though

Agree with above, forget about limping AKs ever. Raise it up, c-bet the flop. There's no reason to play it tricky. As played, your turn bet doesn't make any sense at all. You're raising into someone who has already showed strength and they are never folding there.

Did you catch the royal, though?

Limp and then get active when you basically miss the board (except for runner runner of course...)?

Raise pf, probably get called by 1 blind. C bet flop, probably get called by same blind. Pick up royal draw on the turn and check if checked to. Hit royal and get his stack.

I would agree with posts over. U just had to raise it to see who has the cards for play and get rid of those limpingon 9 j or so.
If in some case I`ve played the hand like U, would definetly fold on this one. There r small chances hes blufing and u got only one real out.
As everyone in this thread, I would also like to know what U played, and what was the river.
