You played it way too passively imo, i would’ve bet 1/2 to 2/3 pot on turn and river

 

[Pablo22]

I think you will get a call on the flop if you raise as well.

 

[Kenzie 96]

Need to be more aggressive.

3bet pre. Half pot on the flop. 2/3 pot on the turn and river.

There’s not a ton more value you’re getting out of this hand on the river the way you played it. I think you misplayed it post flop. I would’ve bet flop. In MP you have a lot more aces in your range. The problem the is KJ might not come along. AK calls though and when there’s a blank turn you can bet something like 1/3 to 1/2 pot and expect any Ace to call along with some flush and straight draws. Remember your range is made up of mostly Ax and pocket pairs. If you’ve built a table image of being on the tighter side you should have KcJc, KcQc, QcJc and possibly Qc9c and Jc9c but that’s it. 5 combos. If you’ve played somewhat loose you play the hand the way you did but you’re still not getting max value on your premium hands. If there was a flop without the Ace and you replaced it with something lower then the 10 you should check to ensure a bet. But with an Ace on board and you not having one I’d for sure be betting.

in the pre-flop maybe you should raise but what I did not understand is that after the BU check in the Turn you do again check the river, why? how you wanted to give value to the hand, honestly I do not understand

Actually I ended up backing down because I thought some of them had a Kx that could hit my game. I played badly

Three checks is at least two checks too many. Maybe you don't want to bet the turn because you want someone to draw a better hand, but I would've put money in on the turn & river.

With a 9, someone might've connected with a straight draw & could've called. Someone with a pair of aces (or two pairs), might've called.

I think you should have at least bet the turn. Maybe you were waiting to see the river. But I dont think you should be giving free cards. You want to play, you gotta pay.

 

[TheBandit]

you should have raised and tried to see how much they loved their cards. playing like you did actually open you up to getting beat by the K of clubs... Don't give people cheap looks to draw cards it will kill you
