I think it was in the Push or Fold Vid Series or an atical about playing KQ like TPTK. Not sure if that is the same in an unraised pot tho.

Dont know about playing kq as tptk, but MP1 never has AK here. he would have raised preflp and on the flop. I think you need to fold the flop IF he reraises you but he didnt. i would say he has 88-tt here or maybe heart suited connectros. IMO (but wait for the judge) nh wp

I would bet bigger on the turn here.
Everything else looks fine

bet flop because it's draw heavy and you'll get value out of bunch of worse..

turn I would probably just bet 1/2 pot.. don't want to get too committed to the pot at this stage..

and river I check/call to get value out of missed draws and some stupidity.

I like the entire hand as played. Check/calling the river is an option but when villains limp I don't put AK in their range. As a result I feel that we can get value from enough worse Kx hands by just shipping it in here. And sometimes villains will look us up with their pair + flushdraw hands also.
