    Lighting sweet moneys on fire.

    Default 2/4: AK vs maniac

    Villain is 54/37 tard with 21% 3bet and I've never seen him not iso when given opportunity (smallish sample).

    No-Limit Hold'em, $4.00 BB (6 handed) - Hold'em Manager Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com
    SB ($265.47)
    BB ($611.26)
    UTG ($103.18)
    MP ($83.62)
    Hero (CO) ($410)
    Button ($506)

    Preflop: Hero is CO with K, A
    UTG calls $4, 1 fold, Hero calls $4, Button bets $20, 3 folds, Hero raises $80, Button calls $64

    Flop: ($178) 10, 8, 4 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $45, Hero calls $45

    Turn: ($268) 3 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $90, Hero calls $90

    River: ($448) 10 (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $287 (All-In), Hero calls $191 (All-In)

    Any other way to play this hand postflop?

    I'd probably just bet like $70 on the flop and re-eval.

    I'd expect this type of player to call with worse (AQ/AJ/KQ type stuff as well as QJ, J9, 78, 67 etc).

    I don't hate c/c flop but I usually own myself (stack myself) by calling down and then calling this river here and getting "bluffed" by 22 or something. So I just prefer to keep initiative on flop.

    I'd play postflop the same as P4s, but definitely find myself getting pwned by "bluffs" at times. What's your plan for turn/river if we cbet flop and villain calls/raises?

    That's so tough to say. I'm definitely not opposed to shoving over a smallish flop raise, pending the villain and feel.

    Other times if they call flop and check back turn I would c/c this river.

    (edit: a lot of this depends on how small you cbet flop and how wide they are being induced to raise or how wide they are peeling flop)

    Not sure about the limp rr, but postflop I think this is ok. Just so few hands he's value showing against your line.
    Family Cruise IMO
