The sb is lose, but has shown solid hands down. I feel that my Ace and King are good as he could've been threebetting me with AQ,QQ,JJ,1010, or even possibly 99, KQs isn't out of the question here either.

One question pre-flop, who capped after SB 3-bet? I see that UTG+1, Hero and SB all call again? I'll assume that you capped and didn't just call the 3-bet.SB check raises you after the flop and then bets out on the turn and river.By the river, he must know that you are likely to call and the K doesn't even slow him down. Maybe he caught runner runner flush on AQs.I would have folded on the turn since I didn't have anything besides A high. On the river, I would check as you did, the K is good for your hand but he's betting like he has pocket aces or kings.

The betting wasn't capped PF, I dodn't cap w/AKo. He had been aggressive but I felt that tens,jacks, or Queens were his most likely holdings. Like I said I felt both my Ace and King were good if I hit. My turn call was purely out of math. I was about 7-1 to hit and I think I was getting around that

It wasn't even a debate over there. :-) As for the hand, you played fine. He C/r you on the flop, and you have to call to see the turn. You are getting almost 9-1 on the pot, so a call is good. The river call is fine, too. Don't raise.nice hand

eddie, i didn't know "Badder" was a word.i personally cap pre-flop with AK, but that's not such a big deal.bet on the flop was totally fine, but the fact that he checkraised either means a set or an overpair. he MIGHT have checkraised to increase his fold equity on the turn, that's very possible.after that, you played it fine. you definitely had proper odds to call the turn. the pot was big and sometimes your AK is ahead anyway.raising the river was probably not a good idea because you'd lose two EXTRA bets (for a total of three river bets) if you got three-bet when you were beat. that's worse than just betting the river because you lose two total bets if you get raised; here you would lose three. so the river call was fine.aseemp.s. eddie, if you fold to a raise on the flop after you bet out, that's astonishingly weak/tight. seriously.

Raise the river. This is a 3-bet to isolate with a middle pair much of the time, JJ and QQ some of the time, AA occasiaonlly, KK rarely and a set evern more rarely.Raise it for value, call a three-bet.
