I actually had planned on getting a free card on the turn by the maneuver but when chuck11xx folded and robert just called the raise after his weak flop bet, I felt a move could be successful.

Is this a good line to take for a bluff, or could I have handled it a different way?

I think people spew a lot of chips with AK playing hands like this.

But that's just me...

True, lucky for me this time it worked. I just saw alot of weakness in his flop bet.

Pretty easy to put him on a pair or osd. Just a question of how he's gonna play it. Not a big fan of blowing people off hands as a matter of routine.

I agree 100%, if this was routine I'd be broke.

I think you can find a call on the flop and a check/fold on the turn.
I agree this isnt the way to play AK. Because we class it as a reraise hand it seems to get treat as a licence to print money post flop and it isnt.

Not enough people can fold top pair for this to be +EV I think.
Set farming works because this doesn't.

Please stop saying your results after one person has replied get as many peoples input in and then tell us the results.

Quoted for truth.

I made a post a little while earlier about a very similar hand where I had AK and got 3 callers on a Q high flop. Anyway, as I explained in my post, this is why I tend to just check/fold a missed AK or overcards when I get 3 or more callers. You are trying to muscle villian out of this pot, and in the long run I am a firm believer that this is a very -EV play. I would just fold the flop. You have a gutshot and 2 overs that probably aren't live. In order to take the line you did, I would need a very solid and specific read. On a final note, your flop raise needs to be bigger if you really want to take it down right there. I think your fold equity with a $5 raise against 2 opponents into a $19 pot is close to zero. It's good that you are able to be aggressive, as it is key in NL. However, naked aggression or ill-timed aggression is just spewing chips.
