Overplayed AKo in 4-bet pot?

Why do you cbet this flop and do not xb?

I don't know much about playing 4-bet pots, and I think I just cbet because I want to scare him away with some hands that is weaker than AA or KK.

Bigger 4 bet pre.
I dont accept your argument. Board is very coordinated and connects with every hand of your opponent's range. That means zero FE You have 3 pure outs. You want cheap showdown so you must check back OTF. OTT if you dont improve check back again and fold to agression. As you played you are commited to the pot so push OTT is ok

You are probably crushed against Villain's range on that floptexture. Assuming Villains 4-bet calling range is QQ-99,AQs+,AKo, his equity is 66% against you on the flop. If you are going to ship it, do it on the flop instead of on the turn. But it is very likely you are up against a set or a big draw.

So yes, I think you overplayed it. I think it is better to just check the flop. Also some people flat here preflop with AA and KK which also crushes you.

Try to enlist those hands.

I prefer a check back on the flop, his range crushes you on this flop texture and hence continuation is a big no. Why turn down free cards and a chance to improve?

No reason for cbetting the flop imo. We should just give up, maybe even if we hit A or K OTT which is not A of hearts. This board hits his range the hardest possible.

You can assume in 4bet pots the range of villain is extremely tight. We should xb here OTF
