No reads on the guy here. I usually don't play AK to a raise oop but I was playing a little extra loose today and played it pretty strong. But anyways, comment on preflop-river play and tell me wat you think. I put him on AK and my big river bet was partially to bow him off and maybe even catch a weaker hand

Did you have a read on this player? Does his weak lead off bet mean anything? Is that a sign of strength for him? Is he trying for a cheap draw?

When he calls the flop-raise bet I would put him on AdKd and maybe AdQd if he's a loose plr.

When the 3d lands on the river I think it would be a good time to check back to him rather than push; and maybe call his river bet, although I really can't see him calling along without the flush draw in his favor. Any other hand would surely raise the turn.

Yeah, AdKd doesn't look too unlikely here.

OK sorry the hand history was all messed up but I fixed it. Jerkoff shows A8o and gets an easy $100 off me.

Do you usually aim to play for your whole stack with AK hitting a pair. My aim is to usually play medium sized pots and play for my stack with bigger hands. I will check this river pretty much every time. With a laggy table image unlike mine I guess its a plausible play though.
