playing AK HIGH

[TakinOver]

Thought he had pair of 10s or some other pair. Nice bluff by him but even better call by you. Nice hand

first of all....did u have a crystal ball or something?..no?..then why u raised pre-flop?..nobody EVER knows what comes on table...=/
2o) flop comes 632, do you have anything here with ur "precious" AK?..no?... then why u raised? ....=/
3o) turn comes 6 and both check, first reasonable thing u do....
4o) river is a 7, still: do u have anything yet with ur "wonderfull" AK?..no?.....ok, then call his raise n see ur money go away with his pair of 2.

simple like that.

all your commentary is why you are a fish and i am a shark. he had king high and ace high won. your gonna keep losing a lot of money until you realize that a good majority of poker isnt about your hand its your opponents.

I play ak like aces. If I am gonna lose I am gonna lose with AK

I would say taht he has a high pocket pair and that you are in really bad position. Especially because he check-called you on the turn. He wouldnt bet 30$-- a mediocre sized bet. He knew you were on AK.

he didnt check call me on the turn, it went check check. he didnt have a high pkt pair, he had KQ and was bluffn and i caught him.

I dont think that AK is good their most of the time. It seems like he played the hand like he may have hit a small peice of it but was not sure if he was good or not.

At our Casino (Snca) they mostly win money with a-high or a low, strong pair; either aces or with pockets---mostly ace high, though; K-Q, too.

I strive for you to think about this intuitively and not just from the basis of "WELL I ONLY HAVE ACE HIGH."
thats beginner thinking.
the questions you should be asking yourself are:
1)what did he 3-bet with that hes now checked the flop? AQ,AJ,A10....some poket pair?
2)if he did 3-bet with a poket pair, why has he now checked the flop? why would he not just continuation bet the flop?
3)if he was trapping and did in fact have a poket pair, WHY did he not check raise my flop bet!? He flopped a set of 66 33 or 22? Would he really 3-bet with this hand?
****THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS U NEED TO ASK YOURSELF IF YOU ARE ANSWERING THIS FORUM TO TRY AND IMPROVE YOUR PLAY. IF YOU CONTINUE PLAYING POKER AND MORE SPECIFICALLY SITUATIONS LIKE THIS ONLY THINKING ABOUT YOUR OWN HAND AND NOT ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS YOUR NEVER GOING TO BECOME A BETTER PLAYER
