    Default Project AK Improvement: Hand #2

    This is Hand #2 in my project to improve AK play, would appreciate your thoughts, input, advice and counsel.

    Reads/Stats
    UTG: 80/8/1.4 over 47 hands, Notes Include:
    Crazy Loose, could be ATC
    Very Loose Range, called 3xBB EP/MP Raise with Q6o
    1.5xpot over bet on flop with air OOP
    MP2: 20/12/8 over 50 hands, TAG profile, no specific notes
    BB: 15/3/1.5, Notes Include:
    Rarely incremental bets, just goes AI with short stack (40xbb)

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.05 BB (9 handed) -

    Poker-Stars

    Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    MP3 ($1.28)
    CO ($11.36)
    Button ($5.76)
    SB ($10.58)
    BB ($2)
    UTG ($12.48)
    UTG+1 ($9.25)
    Hero (MP1) ($4.76)
    MP2 ($13.21)

    Preflop: Hero is MP1 with K, A
    UTG calls $0.05, 1 fold, Hero bets $0.25, MP2 calls $0.25,
    4 folds, BB calls $0.20, UTG calls $0.20

    Flop: ($1.02) Q, 6,9 (4 players)
    BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, MP2 checks

    Turn: ($1.02) 6
    (4 players)
    BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, MP2 checks

    River: ($1.02) 7
    (4 players)
    BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks, MP2 checks

    Analysis
    Pre-Flop: Raise 5xBB (4xBB + 1/limper), get 3 callers

    Flop: UTG checks, 2 players behind to act, decide to check with TAG and short-stack behind us

    Turn: We don't hit, Multi-player pot, decide to check given multi-way pot

    River: Another miss, could bluff the flush but decide to check, again multi-way pot

    Is this the right play? Anyone advocate a we c-bet flop here into smallish multi-way pot? Any reason to bet turn? Anyone bluff river?

    Thanks everyone in advance!!

    post of the year b/c of reads.

    check down as well. if mp2's aggression factor was smaller, i cbet like 0.60 and fold to aggression.

    I'm never cbetting here in a 4way pot behind a "crazy loose" "ATC" player and with the likelihood of the SS behind pushing over, regardless of the flop.

    I often bet the turn since nobody's missed flop hands have improved (you're not representing anything but i've still found it to be a +EV play at these limits. BUT i just wasted your time by saying that because, again, against these players i can't imagine this works enough to make the play. hope that it checks through and that you catch a card on the river
