flop is 9s 5s 2c, he checks, i bet and he c/r me...what influences your decision to push here? or call?
What if the board is paired?
Pushing is good because you are a favorite over all one pair hands, and have 33% equity at worse. It's also great for metagame purposes. I'd only call if this guy was a passive set-mining nit that would only c/r me with a set. If the board is paired, the value of your draw decreases a lot, so I'd lean towards just calling.

same flop
how do u proceed?
I don't think I'd ever just smooth call with AKs out of the blinds facing a button raise, but if I did, I'd probably lead and push over a raise. Sometimes c/r.
