Bet the flop, shove the turn, easy game. Also pre size is a bit big but if people have been being retards all day and are calling that raise size then it'll be fine.

I never bet that flop with ak. Maybe I missing something. I agree with play for stacks when we hit our k. Sucks that the dominated hand wins out and u lose but hey thats just poker.

Villain is c/raising the flop, possibly all-in. I don't think you'll get the chance to shove on the turn!

I think I check call the flop, check call the turn, shove or check fold river...or check call if you pick up a piece. Leading flop is fine...opponent will call IP. You will of course check turn...and he will bet and you should shove in that case. I think his check back on the flop puts a Q in his range...a hand he will fold to your all in turn raise...unless it's 2 pair...

Why are you check calling the flop?

This is so confusing

Villain is small blind, first to act post-flop
Hero is IP with AK
none of the above makes any sense

After the flop you had 2 over cards, but did not put out a continuation bet when in position and you were the pre-flop raiser. Seems like a mistake. With a c-bet and a re-raise (probable) from the villain you would have had a clearer picture of what you were up against. At that point you might have folded to the re-raise. Of course you might also have seen the re-raise, caught the pair on the turn, and been faced with a more complicated decision. But at least you would have a picture of what the villain was up to.
