Message: [QUOTE="fundiver199, post: 6928590, member: 397965"] Since this is a high stakes hand, you might want to ask a solver in top of asking in a forum. You could just plug in MTT, 100BB and ignore the shorter stacks, and this should get you pretty close to the actual situation. But anyways here is my non-GTO "gutfeel" take on your hand: Preflop Obviously not much to say about 3-betting AK preflop. You dont want to let the blinds in and go multiway with AK, and there is already a field caller in the middle. Sizing looks good as well. Flop On this flop AK is sort of a showdown value hand, since you still beat all his unpaired hands except the rare TX, but you lose to all his pocket pairs, and those are not folding to a single bet on this board. So you are not really bluffing here, but a bet can get called by worse, and it allow you to maintain control of the hand, unless he check-raise. So I think, checking back or betting small are both fine plays. Turn You picked up a gutshot but also lose to QX now. If you bet again, you are more likely to get better hands like 33-99 to fold, than to get called by worse. So a bet does accomplish something as a bluff, but it would suck to get check-raised now and blown off your equity. So personally I check back here most of the time. River You bricked, and at this point you have probably run out of showdown value. Maybe you still beat KJ and AJ of clubs, but thats probably about it. So your hand is a candidate to empty the barrel. But the question is, what is he going to fold now, if he folded 33-99 on the turn? Like exactly JJ? Or is he ever folding top pair? You do have decent removal, since you block hands like AQ, KQs, ATs and KTs, and you dont block JJ or 33-99, if he still have those in the range. I dont know. I probably give up and check back. But I also check back flop or turn, so I dont really get here like this. [/QUOTE]
