6 max tourney Blinds were 100-400-800 Hero has 67,000 to start hand. Villain covers. Villain has about 80,000. Villain is a good loose aggressive pro. Hero is a young good regular that plays TAG.
As played, this is such a bad river card for you and you're not beating much beside a worse Kx or some underpairs. Folding now, you're still very deep and this is a marginal spot
Why would you shove when he never calls with worse or folds better?
So what do you do?
What does V have? Don't see them turning up with a boat that often. Description is a lag pro, overbets the pot OTR, I guess he could have a flush, Axss and I guess A10ss is possible. First reading I did not notice the flush got there.
turn check is pretty horrible. I don't see any merit to it all. You are going to barrel this texture from UTG a lot with flush draws and gutshots, we should balance it out by barreling strong kings. As played I don't even know, looks like a fold.
I don't understand your sizings either. 3x utg this deep would be standard in 6-max. That is unless you are opening like 25% from that position. Flop sizing is also questionable. Are you an mtt c-betting machine? The c-bet smaller. Are you disciplined and balanced postflop and your continuation bet oop is small as it should be? Bet 4k/4,5k then.
Whole hand leaves impression that hero does not have any particular plan or strategy postflop (and I would argue pre-flop). This is also good example how purely exploitative play that all mtt-regs are praising can fire back hard because hero is not very good postflop.

what hero should do if he had kings instead of AKs?
range check flop OOP to LAG 80bbs deep. If you are gonna cbet, ~40%. Agree with mad1 the whole line looks a bit like you played it street by street w/out too much of a plan.
river is kinda weird, but looks like 6x trying to get paid by AQss/AJss. Hard to see him floating flop too much vs. 60% cbet MW w/AQsx AJsx that would become bluffs here.
^^ no no this k66 board is much better for the ep raiser so a higher frequency cbet strategy is much better. this would be the kind of board you could bet your whole range for like 25%-33%
this is just a UTGvBB sim, you can see unusually high freq check for IP when given option between 1/3, check. reason is frequency of 6x in V range and lack of it in Hero range. And that's just HU, in this spot^ a LAG BTN has some 6x as well.
Seems like u wanna be betting for value/protection extremely often and saving some of your higher strength sdv hands for your x range/then mixing between bet/x w your airy hands that have some equity
Think pf is a little loose and stuff like 86s q9s are probably better folds pre. But thx for running sim that's good stuff
