10NL; AKs; postflop line.

    Default 10NL; AKs; postflop line.

    Hello forum members. Since I started playing cash again; I am not certain about my game. So I would like to hear your thoughts about this hand.

    I was playing fairly tight; 3beting only my good hands, not out of line.

    UTG player was opening 31% of hands; not folding to 3bets.he was playing fairly agressive in position. It was the first time I saw him doing this preflop.

    We were kinda deep-ish so I decided to call preflop and take it from there. My question is; how we should play this hand postflop. (I am going to post my thoughts after some feedback and then you can comment my thoughts) Before I would like to know how you would have played the hand.

    feelin' allright
    If I can be pretty certain that he's going to cbet the flop then I'd c/c, maybe c/r if I'm positive that he'll 4bet pre with less than AA.

    3b to $1.10
    shove over 4b.

    as played he should cbet this board 100 procent. if he checks back pot shove.
    if he bets depending on size c/r or c/jam

    Yeah, I liked the donk, if I think he won't cbet (which if he's as aggressive as the OP wrote then he should) but couldn't decide on a bet size... I was leaning toward $2 with a shove over his raise.

    weird 4bet sizing from villain..

    agree with bikes that you should 3bet a bit bigger, though I don't think I have the balls to shove AK preflop like he said just yet.

    i think villain turns up JJ a high percentage of the time here, QQ/AK also in range for 4bet, KK+ he probably makes a real 4bet. I also think he cbets 100% so I'm c/r'ing or c/c a shove most of the time.

    i probably lead the turn if he checks behind but I would expect to take it down there with that bet or if he calls, check call the river.. and probably fold to a turn raise.. I'm pretty unsure of my turn/river thoughts though

    Preflop you know what I was thinking

    Postflop I am never going to fold on this flop against this opponent, so I decided that the best way I am going to get max value againt this player is using his IP agression against him.
