Stats:22/15/4,4/945 hands...som quite good TAG FT3b-44%,FTCB:63/17/0

Preflop I decided to 3bet it for value because villain folds only 44% against 3bet and his opening range from MP is 26%.

On the flop I hit top pair top kicker but I was quite affraid of QQ or KQ and JT...but I did cbet because I can still get some value from AQ.

Turn is not great but I dont think he could have many TX hands that calls me on the flop so I did cbet again for value and protection and he folded.)

What do you think ? would ch/call be better and why ? I know the only hand I can get value from is AQ I dont think he could call there anything worse.

Strange spot and bad turn card.

Hi SmallestShark

Preflop: Are you looking to stack off preflop with AK? It would be too loose imo and highly likely to not be +EV.

Postflop: As played what exactly are you valuebetting versus? What are you protecting versus?

At best he can call with AQ but that's most likely folding. Everything else crushes us.

Why check/call?

Nothing worse bets.

It's a check/fold on the turn in my opinion.

Yes,

On the flop you still get called by worse like KJ/KT or JJ/TT. All these hands got there on the turn.
