AK semibluff

Small # of hands on opponent, but he's certainly running at least somewhat running LAGGY, 37/31/3.5 so far. I figured he would be raising with draws here, and since I have no spades he could have the A or K here...in retrospect I'm thinking this is pretty dumb though.

ouch
either he has a set of doocies, or that was a very nice turn card for him.
i suppose he could have J10 here, or JQ and a few other crap hands that still beat you.

think im folding to his r/r without any history

I like it against some opponents but just cause hes laggy pre doesn't say much about whether he check raises cbets light.

If you've seen him raise/fold in spots like this before i like it but if not this is spew

I think there are better spots for this. Sure you'll have a bit of equity but very seldom will you have the 10 clean outs. I wish you had more stats about his cbet folding% and stuff like that but I doubt we really have much FE which is key when we are likely behind.

I didn't have enough hands on him to have any reliable numbers on anything else...which alone is reason to not make this play.

I've just been trying to play AK more aggressively, this is obviously not the place to do it.

Think about the equity of his range vs. your range

Never a bad play, I would just like more of a read before I do this.
