A couple of AKo hands.

A couple of hands for your inspection here.

I know I played this first one horribly; I guess I was putting him on AQ. I'm just wondering how horrible it was. Was it marginal, or am I way behind? Both the Villians here are new to me, no reads, no data.

1) Instafold turn
2) Meh, probably check behind on flop

2) Really? Heads Up? People are usually folding here.

i like betting the flop in hand 2

It's commitment issues that get me in hand 2

1) You put him on AQ even though the flop had no A or Q on? When he calls the flop bet he probably has a J or a lower pocket pair. When an A comes and he raises he doesnt have a lower pocket pair. (maybe a flush draw I guess).

2) I play it the same.

People are cold calling, and calling a c-bet with nice looking overcards way too much at this level, but yeah, I sucked there.

Maybe, but unless you have specific reads I don't think they are raising a turn without something > AK

hand 1 is def. a fold on the turn. As played, if you really think he has a worse ace just push over the turn because you leave nothing behind for a river bet.

hand 2 is super standard.
