I would lead for $6. If tighty calls or raises you're probably beat. If chump calls or raises be happy.

I like a reraise PF, esp since youre OOP. Then you can safely bet this flop and fold to a big raise.
My sig is too much for you to handle.

I too felt that I was iether way ahead or badly beat, and if a K came out ono the turn I doubt I would feel even worse about my hand

I put UTG+1 as AA, KK, QQ, JJ, AK, AQ that looks like all he would raise from so early a position. So all I beat is KK,QQ I split with AK, and evrything else kicks me in the nuts

action was I bet $5 UTG+1 calls, MP folds
turn card 3h

I'm not a big fan of reraising PF with AKo, but that's just me. I think I would have just flat called also. Thing is, after calling and seeing that flop, no questions asked I'm definitely leading out, I mean, I certainly got a piece of what I wanted to see; if I throw out a 3/4 pot bet or so and UTG reraises, I'll dump it and give the rock credit for JJJ or TTT.

This is a no-brainer reraise to 10-11 PF.

reraise is mandatory in this spot.

After rethinking this, raising PF does seem like the right choice; you get your info earlier plus a chance to bounce the "chump" out of the hand before he has a chance to catch whatever possible junk he may have.

I like it.
